CHICAGO (AP) — Coby White scored 24 points, Ayo Dosunmu had 19
and the Chicago Bulls beat the Brooklyn Nets 124-102 on Sunday
night to split a home-and-home set.
The Nets won the opener 112-109 on Friday night in Brooklyn.
Nikola Vucevic added 17 points, 11 rebounds and six assists for
Chicago. Matas Buzelis also scored 17 points.
Nolan Traore scored 16 points for Brooklyn. Danny Wolf and Jalen
Wilson each had 14. The Nets have lost nine of 11.
Dosunmu had 3-pointers at the beginning and end of a 10-0 run
late in the first quarter to help the Bulls take a 39-22 lead
into the second. Chicago led 70-51 at the half and the advantage
stayed above 20 points for most of the second half.
The Bulls average more than 20,000 fans at the United Center,
but there were plenty of empty seats at tip-off, which came 30
minutes after the Los Angeles Rams and Bears kicked off their
NFC division round game a few miles away at Soldier Field. The
Bears’ first touchdown occurred just before an early timeout and
got a loud roar from the crowd when a replay was shown on the
video board.

Nets: Host Phoenix on Monday night.
Bulls: Host the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night.
