Josh Giddey and the Chicago Bulls needed some late-game magic to help fend off LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers at home on Thursday.
The Bulls’ 119-117 victory was their second win over the Lakers in a week. The Bulls are trying to secure a spot in the postseason and the victory helped improve their record to 33-40 overall.
Giddey finished the game with 25 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, but it was his game-winning shot that highlighted another positive result for the Bulls.
