Bulls get long-awaited second win in first game without Caleb Wilson
It looked like the Bulls were going to let another big lead get away when their 18-point lead over the Hawks disappeared. But they kept it together, and Norman Powell took over, scoring nine of his 33 points in overtime to lead the Bulls to a 125-117 victory for their long-awaited second win of the season.
For a team that entered on an eight-game skid, the Bulls (2-9) showed a lot of fight during the game and a lot of emotion as it ended.
“It’s not easy to lose a lot of games,” coach Tiago Splitter said. “You got to stay composed; you got to stay locked in. But that frustration’s still there. And when you win a game, sometimes that stuff comes out.”
