The Bulls led the game by up to 22 points thanks to a fifty-four percent success rate from shooting in the field, from a three-point distance they got to 40 percent. In addition to LaVine, Nikola Vučevič was one of the leaders, contributing 22 points and seven rebounds.
“We are getting better on the offensive. We’re finally starting to understand the way we want to play, “said coach Billy Donovan.
Bulls recorded the absence of Toronto props by Kyle Lowry or Fred VanVleet. They were most busy with pivot Chris Boucher, who scored 38 points and jumped 19 balls, another 27 points were added by Pascal Siakam.

Satoransky et al. are currently in tenth place in the Eastern Conference with a balance of 22-28, losing only one win to Indiana 9th and three to New York with two good matches. Before returning to the home field, the Bulls now face three relatively playable opponents: Atlanta, Minnesota and Memphis.
In the replay of last year’s final, Miami defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 110-110. Jimmy Butler finished the home with 28 points to win over a weakened opponent. Victor Oladipo added 18, but resigned in the fourth quarter due to knee pain. Heat was decorated mainly by forty percent shooting of threes.
In the further absence of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, the Lakers leader was the author of 28 points Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Andre Drummond added 15 points and 12 rebounds after returning to the line-up. The reigning champions are already seven winners behind the first Utah in the fifth place of the Western Conference. It was the leaders of the entire NBA who did not give Portland a chance and won 122: 103. Donovan Mitchell scored 37 points, pivot Rudy Gobert added 21 rebounds to 18 points.
Milwaukee still had no chance in Dallas without an injured Janis Adetokunb and lost 101: 116. The Mavericks relied on a pair of Luka Dončič, Kristaps Porzingis – the first scored 27 points and after nine rebounds and assists, the second 26 points and 17 rebounded balls.
“If you hit once, then you already believe and other shots will fall,” praised Porzingis, who gave four threes in the last quarter. For the Bucks, Donte DiVincenzo collected 22 points and Bobby Portis 20 points and 14 rebounds, but the third team of the Eastern Conference lost the fifth of the last 10 matches.
The Los Angeles Clippers finished a series of seven wins of the second team in the Phoenix League. Paul George contributed 33 points, including seven threes out of nine attempts, Kawhi Leonard added 27 points. The leader of the Suns was Devin Booker with 24 points.
