Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. shoots over Bulls guard Zach LaVine on Sunday at the United Center. Porter scored 31 points and made six three-pointers.

They scored only 20 points in the first quarter and allowed the Nuggets to score 32 on 60% shooting from the field and 50% from three-point range.

Things got worse from there. Michael Porter Jr.
