ATLANTA -- Lauri Markkanen made three free throws to give Chicago the lead for good late in the fourth overtime, as the Bulls overcame Trae Young's career-high 49 points to beat the Atlanta Hawks 168-161 in the third highest scoring game in NBA history.
The 329 combined points only trailed the 370 scored by the Pistons and Nuggets in triple overtime in December 1983, and the 337 from the Bucks and Spurs in March 1982.
Markkanen finished with 31 points with 17 rebounds. He snapped a 159-all tie by making the three free throws after he was fouled by Alex Len.
