Bulls veterans shooting the hell out of the ball to start 2020-21 season

The Bulls smashed the Mavericks 117-101 on Sunday to snap a four-game losing streak. While Lauri Markkanen led Chicago with 29 points, it was the bench that flipped the game in the first quarter and continued pouring it on throughout.

The Bulls’ bench racked up 61 points, with the trio of Garrett Temple, Thaddeus Young and Otto Porter Jr. combining for 50 points on a ridiculous 23-of-30 from the field. Temple scored 17 points in the first half, while Porter closed the game down with 12 points on 6-of-6 shooting in the fourth quarter alone. Young was stellar all game long.
