Atlanta was without Trae Young for most of the second half, who received a second technical foul early in the third quarter for staring down Kris Dunn after nailing a shot from the logo. Both Dunn and Young had received a technical foul in the first quarter for an altercation between the two point guards.
This game was a depleted one to say the least, as Atlanta was missing Omari Spellman, John Collins, Taurean Prince, & Trae Young for a solid amount of the second half. The Bulls were without Otto Porter Jr.
