It looked like it was just a layup away for star shooting guard Zach LaVine and the Chicago Bulls on the night of Feb. 8 against the Washington Wizards at home at the United Center. A showdown between two of the top scoring guards in the Eastern Conference early this week definitely lived up to the hype, with LaVine and Wizards star shooting guard Bradley Beal each posting 35 points.
Yet, it was Beal and the Wizards that would get the best of LaVine and the struggling and injured Bulls in the end.
