Wednesday night’s game at the United Center between the Bulls and Mavericks featured a pair of 7-3 teams, but Chicago had been the much better team through 10 games. True to form, the Bulls were the much better team in this one, cruising to a 117-107 victory on the back of an excellent team performance.
Zach LaVine led five Bulls in double figures with 23 points as they shot 50.6% from the field and a red-hot 15-of-31 from 3-point range. Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso did the majority of the work from downtown, with Ball going 7-of-10 from distance and Caruso going 3-of-4.
