The Bulls were in striking distance for much of this contest against the very good Milwaukee Bucks, even leading during large parts of it. But despite getting good offensive performances from Coby White and Zach LaVine, and continuing the overall uptick in 3-point shooting, it wasn’t enough.
The threes were plentiful and fruitful
First, the good. The Bulls outscored Milwaukee by 36 points from the three-point line. Coby White was on fire for the second straight game in a row, dropping 26 points and hitting six threes. LaVine added 25 points on 4 three-point makes.
