Diar DeRozan was the breakout star of the Bulls’ play-in win Wednesday.

Sure, Zach LaVine scored 39, and her dad DeMar DeRozan added 23, but 9-year-old Diar and her screams while the Raptors were taking free throws stole the show.

The Raptors were 18-of-36 from the free throw line in the game.

“My daughter called me the other day when she was getting out of school and she just said, ‘Dad, can I come to the Toronto game?'” DeRozan said after the game, via the Associated Press. “I remember her going to all the Toronto games when she was a kid and I almost said no because she’s in school back home. But she kept asking. She was just adamant about coming to support and I said, ‘All right, you can miss one day of school and come to a game.’ I’m glad I did. I owe her some money for sure.”

He also didn’t know it was her during the game.

Don’t get on Diar getting to come with dad to Miami for Friday’s game vs. the Heat — with the winner advancing to the playoffs — but they sure could use her.
