Game Recap
Chicago's dominance in the season series continued as the Bulls held the Wizards to their lowest output of their three meetings this year. The previous matchup between these teams produced 227 combined points—the exact same total this game landed on—but Washington's defensive struggles in this rematch left little doubt about the direction of the result.
The first half stayed relatively contained, with 103 combined points through 24 minutes. Chicago's offense sputtered in the second quarter (20 points), while Washington kept pace with 27, narrowing the margin. The third quarter flipped the script: Chicago erupted for 35 points while Washington managed just 23, extending the gap to a decisive 12 before the fourth-quarter shootout began. Both teams then combined for 66 points in the final frame—the game's highest-scoring quarter—but the damage was done. Final: Bulls 119, Wizards 108, combined 227.
Tre Jones led Chicago's assault with 31 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists, complemented by Collin Sexton's 27 points and Leonard Miller's 26 points with 11 rebounds. Washington's Will Riley posted 23 points, 9 rebounds, and 7 assists in the loss, while Julian Reese added 16 points and 15 boards. DAGGER's pregame lean to the under cashed decisively: the 227 final landed 21.5 points below the 248.5 market total, marking a straightforward defensive affair despite the fourth-quarter scoring run.
