Game Recap
Chicago closed out a 119-108 win over Washington, using efficient shooting and balanced scoring to control the game. The Bulls finished at 34-of-63 from the field (54.0%) and paired that efficiency with 26 assists, consistently generating quality looks in the half court.
Tre Jones led the way with a game-high 31 points, setting the tone as Chicago repeatedly answered Washington runs. Collin Sexton added 27 points and Leonard Miller scored 26, giving the Bulls three high-volume scorers and making it difficult for the Wizards to load up on any one option.
Washington stayed competitive with strong work on the glass (52 rebounds) and perimeter volume (38 three-point attempts), but the shooting gap proved costly. The Wizards went 28-of-58 overall (48.0%) and hit 10 threes, yet couldn’t match Chicago’s steadier conversion rate and ball movement. W. Riley paced Washington with 23 points, while J. Reese contributed 16.
The result reinforces Chicago’s ability to win with offensive balance and efficient execution, while Washington’s positives—rebounding and effort—were offset by the challenge of keeping pace against a hotter-shooting opponent. Going forward, the Bulls can build on the chemistry shown in their assist total, and the Wizards will look to turn extra possessions into more efficient scoring to close similar gaps.
