April 5 - The Chicago Bulls know they will be playing beyond the regular season, but making sure all the pieces are clicking is an essential task over their final five games.
They starts Sunday afternoon when they visit the struggling Charlotte Hornets.
The Bulls (35-42) have clinched a spot in the play-in round for the postseason, but they'd like to improve their stock. They have won two straight following a 118-113 home victory against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday.
Bulls guard Coby White is coming off a 31-point outing. He has been the Bulls' leading scorer in 10 of the past 12 games, sharing the scoring honors with Nikola Vucevic on Friday.
