The Chicago Bulls are the latest NBA Squad to get hit with the Covid Virus but that didn't stop the next man up as Team USA Gold Medalist and Bulls Star Guard Zach LaVine gives the visiting Denver Nuggets a little "Taste of Chicago" Madison Street as the Bulls roll to a convincing 109-97 "W"!
That next man up thang resonated right through the Bulls Locker Room as LaVine led all five Bulls Starters in double figures with a game-high 32 points with eight helpers. Both Nikolai Vucevic and Lonzo Ball added 20 points and ten boards each to boot with Derrick Jones Jr. 10 and nine boards. Former Illini and Chicago IL Morgan Park H.S. Star Ayo Dosunmu in his first NBA Start looked and played the part with an outstanding night 11 points, eight boards and six helpers as he continues to impress...
Denver led early in the second by as much as eleven points by the score of 47-36 and that's when the Bulls put into high gear narrowing that deficit to 49-46 at the break. LaVine then took over midway through the 3rd frame with a dozen in the frame as Chicago led 77-71 at the end of the 3rd.
Bulls led by as much as 17 in the 4th and never looked back as Nuggets Star "Big" Nikola Jokic went triple-double with 17 points, fifteen helpers and a dozen boards. Will Barton and Monte Morris led Mile High Basketball with 19 each!
Bulls move to 17-8 and 8-4 at the Madhouse on Madison as Coby White and DeMar DeRozan were both out with Covid as we ll as JaVonte Green. Nugs Star Point Guard Jamal Murray still a few months away out rehabbing his ACL.
Next Up for the Bulls Wednesday Decemeber 8th in C-Town vs "Bloodline" PG Darius Garland and the new Cleveland Cavaliers. Denver will be the Big Easy on the same night taking on State Bird of Louisiana Hoops!
