Bulls center Nikola Vucevic was a man possessed.
Every time the Bulls needed an answer Sunday against the Warriors at the United Center, there he was.
Vucevic produced inside and beyond the three-point arc and exploited the Warriors in one-on-one isolation situations, matching his career high with 43 points to lead the Bulls to a 132-118 victory that ended a three-game losing streak. He added 13 rebounds and four steals for good measure.
It was a positive prelude for the Bulls’ eight-hour flight to Paris, where they will face the Pistons on Thursday.
