The Chicago Bulls will enter the new year on a winning streak after outlasting the Charlotte Hornets in a 115-108 win Monday.
After Miles Bridges punched the Hornets into overtime with a last-gasp 3-pointer to tie the game with one second remaining, the tank was completely emptied for the home team. The Bulls outscored the Hornets 17-19 in overtime, anchored by a performance off the bench from Torrey Craig.
This was an unfamiliar position for the Bulls — the team has not gone to overtime this season, making it 32 games before requiring extra time to close out a game.
