L2M: Bulls' Rondo didn't step out of bounds in final minute vs. Raptors

The Toronto Raptors had a little luck on their side in Tuesday's thrilling overtime victory over the Chicago Bulls.

The NBA's Last Two Minute Report revealed Rajon Rondo did not step out of bounds when he attempted to save a ball with less than a minute remaining in regulation. Instead, Chicago was whistled for a turnover, and the Raptors' DeMar DeRozan nailed the game-tying shot on the ensuing possession.

While Chicago may have been disadvantaged on that play, Toronto wasn't the only team to receive the benefit of the whistle, as the report also indicated Jimmy Butler should've been whistled for travelling on an earlier possession.

Toronto ultimately came out on top, downing the Bulls 122-120 to snap their 11-game losing skid versus Chicago.
