At the end of their prolonged road trip, the Cavaliers simply ran out of gas on Saturday night in Chicago – surrendering a 19-point lead after being outscored 31-14 in the fourth quarter.
Cleveland scored 73 points in the first half and hit the century mark by the end of three, but got sloppy down the stretch as the Bulls rallied for the 118-116 win at the United Center, sending the Wine & Gold home with a 2-4 mark on the 11-day sojourn.
The Cavaliers still had a chance to get the win. Cedi Osman drilled a three-pointer with 11.
