Boozer Played Off Teammates In Return To Lineup

In his first game back from an ankle injury he suffered against the Indiana Pacers, Carlos Boozer put up 16 points and was 6-10 from the floor.

His successful return had as much to do with the players around him, as it did with himself.

"I just played off my teammates," Boozer said. "When you have other good players around you, all you have to do is play off them and take what's there."

All five starters reached double-digit points for the Bulls as the team dismissed the Sacramento Kings by 40 points. And while Derrick Rose has been the best player on the Bulls, and maybe in the NBA this season, the team has received big efforts from players like Boozer, Luol Deng and Joakim Noah on a regular basis.
