The New Orleans Pelicans won their first game of the Summer League, defeating the Chicago Bulls in a game that was closer than the 94-77 score would indicate.

The Pels used a late 23-6 run to put the Bulls away, which was nice to see even though it is ultimately a meaningless Summer League game.

The Bulls and Pelicans will likely be rivals this season after the Lonzo Ball saga, which is still ongoing due to a tampering investigation that could cost the Pels a first-round draft pick.
