It wasnt pretty, but the Bulls survived a scrappy Orlando Magic team to push their season-best win streak to eight.
An Ayo Dosunmu corner 3, which stymied a start of eight straight long-range misses, saved the Bulls from their lowest-scoring first quarter of the season , but they still shot 5-for-21 and trailed 21-15 after one.The second quarter saw something of a bounceback. Dosunmu’s 3 inspired makes from Derrick Jones Jr. and Troy Brown Jr., and by the eight-minute mark of the period, the Bulls had vaulted in front 27-26 after trailing by as many as 11 points in the first quarter.
“This is a game, to me, that if you don’t defend, but shoot it the way we did, we would not have had a chance to win,” Donovan said. “I think that, to me, was the encouraging part. Now, did we play great? No. By no stretch of the imagination, I’m not saying that. We had a hard shooting night. But we talked a lot about defense this morning and I think the guys tried to do as good a job as they possibly could have.
LaVine committed an unsightly turnover with 38.5 seconds left that allowed the Magic to slice their deficit to four, and DeRozan uncharacteristically missed three clutch-time free throws . But ultimately, they prevailed., who filled in well as the team’s starting point guard for five games, to the bench. But there wasn’t much residual effect on White’s production. He contributed 17 points on 7-for-11 shooting and continued to display improved defensive engagement from his first two seasons.
