It’s been a great first full week of January 2022 for the Chicago Bulls. They were able to beat both the Orlando Magic and Washington Wizards with three days of crucial rest in between. Chicago didn’t play their best basketball in either of those games but were still able to come out victorious. Thanks to losses during the week by Brooklyn and Milwaukee, the Bulls lead at the top of the Eastern Conference has now grown. Chicago is now up 2.5 games on second place although the gap between them and the fourth placed Bucks is still just three games.
