The Bulls entered Monday’s game with a 10-game losing streak in Indiana dating back to 2016. While it wasn’t pretty, the streak mercifully came to an end thanks to a 120-112 overtime victory over the Pacers in Wendell Carter Jr.’s return to the lineup.
Despite taking an 11-point lead early in the fourth quarter, it felt like that losing streak was actually going to continue when the Pacers came storming back to take the lead heading into crunch time. But after a quiet first three quarters, Zach LaVine went into attack mode, taking over down the stretch with 12 of his game-high 30 points coming in the fourth quarter.
