The Bulls were the royalty Saturday with a 102-99 victory over the Sacramento Kings.
It came with a brilliant game from Dwyane Wade with 30 points and a pair of game saving steals, the last on a late double team against DeMarcus Cousins, who had 42 points for Sacramento.
Jimmy Butler added 23 points and Paul Zipser 13 points off the bench. No other Kings player scored in double figures.
The Kings had a last chance with 14 seconds left, but Wade came in from behind, stripped the ball away from Cousins and Michael Carter-Williams made a closing dunk.
