The Toronto Raptors continued their road trip with a stop in the Windy City to take on the Chicago Bulls. Despite leading for much of the game, a rough stretch during the fourth let the momentum swing and overtime favoured the Bulls, forcing the Raptors to drop their third straight contest against Chicago this season.
Despite the win, Chicago continues to be in the doldrums of underperforming, moving pieces in an attempt to get better, but not really gaining any ground. Ranked only three spots above Toronto in the East, they were involved at the deadline, moving on from Zach Lavine and adding Collins, Huerter, and Tre Jones.
