Both teams were on a back-to-back in this one, but it was the Bulls who looked a lot fresher and competent as they started hot and wound up blowing out the Bulls 113-93. This wasn’t even as close as the final score, as a 22 point fourth quarter in extended garbage time suppressed the Bulls overall fantastic offensive output.
The starters came to play in this one, or maybe they always ‘come to play’ and this time the threes were going in. Lauri Markkanen, Otto Porter, and Tomas Satoransky combined to shoot 11-16 from three point range which makes everything look better.
