It was an ugly daytime game of basketball in Chicago today, but the Bulls pulled it together and steadily extended a 4th quarter lead to ultimately win by a 102-82 margin over the Washington Wizards.
That’s a correct score, the Wiz scored only 82 points in a 2023 NBA game. The Bulls witchcraft defense that has been going on for the past couple months now continued here as Washington shot 6-28 (21.4%) from three and 12-23 (52.2%) from the free throw line.
Nobody outside of Arturas Karnisovas thinks this team’s defense is actually that good, though they did have a couple things going for them in this one besides luck.
