Good morning, Chicago.

There will be an increased police presence at Sunday’s Lunar Year Parade in Chinatown, Chicago police announced, after a mass shooting left 11 people dead in a Los Angeles-area ballroom Saturday amid a weekend of new year’s celebrations.

“While there is no actionable intelligence in Chicago, we are strengthening security for Lunar New Year celebrations in the upcoming days by increasing our visibility and presence at these events,” Chicago police said in a statement.

Parade organizers said safety is always on the top of their list.

A federal judge shot down an unusual effort by the attorney for R. Kelly’s former business manager Derrel McDavid to force the government to pay McDavid’s nearly $1 million legal tab.

The long-shot motion filed in October by attorney Beau Brindley alleged the evidence against McDavid, who was acquitted of all counts by a jury, was “irreconcilably conflicted and incoherent,” and that he deserves payment after successfully defending himself against a “capricious and overzealous prosecution.”

DeMar DeRozan isn’t the type of player to track accolades. So it came as a surprise to the Chicago Bulls star that Monday night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks marked yet another milestone: his 1,000th NBA game.

DeRozan is the 143rd player in league history to play 1,000 or more regular-season games. That achievement has become less common as the league adapts to the concept of load management. Only 17 of those players, including DeRozan, are active.
