Bulls' Taj Gibson: Stuffs stat sheet Wednesday, including a double-double

Gibson scored 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 FT) and added 10 rebounds, four assists, two steals and two blocks in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 96-90 loss to the Lakers.

Analysis:

It's the sixth double-double of the season for Gibson, who is enjoying a career-best campaign at 31 years old. Gibson's 8.1 boards per game and 53 percent mark from the field are the best of his eight NBA seasons, allowing him to hold off Nikola Mirotic and Bobby Portis for the starting role at power forward.
