DeMar DeRozan's dream season continues.
With his 38-point performance in Friday's 96-94 win over the Miami Heat, DeRozan set a new Toronto Raptors season record with 31 30-plus point games. The old record belonged to Vince Carter, with 30 in 2000-01.
DeRozan scored 21 in the first 14 minutes of the game, including this spectacular up-and-under move.

DeRozan passed VC on the franchise's points list last spring, then became the franchise's all-time leading scorer in December.
The Raptors are 24-7 this season when DeRozan drops 30 or more.
