That’s a big finish in transition from Patrick Williams to put the Bulls up 111-108 with 50.6 seconds left.
Preceded by another strong drive-and-kick combo from Coby White, who set up Josh Giddey to bury a 3-pointer. – 10:14 PM

Giddey in for Ball, who is at 19 minutes. Looks like Giddey may close with Dosunmu out – 10:09 PM

Damian Lillard got his pass tipped by Lonzo, somehow recovered the ball, then drove to the basket for a reverse layup and a foul.
Bucks take a 97-95 lead. – 9:57 PM

Josh Giddey has put up a few notably physical contests for rebounds tonight. Leads the team with eight rebounds and has the only two offensive rebounds for the Bulls so far tonight. – 9:22 PM

Half: Bulls 62, Bucks 60
– Middleton 17pts/4reb/2ast
– Lopez 12pts/2ast/2blk
– LIllard 11pts/3reb/5ast
– Portis 9pts/3reb/2ast
The Bucks can do a lot better in their pick-and-roll defensive coverage in the second half. Feels like the easiest way for them to flip this game. – 9:02 PM

Lonzo Ball not only fouled a 3-point shooter but foul got upgraded to flagrant-1 following video review. Khris Middleton completed the 4-point play and Damian Lillard scored for 6-point Bucks possession. – 8:58 PM

The boys are mostly back tonight – Matas, Lonzo, Giddey all back. Only Ayo and his strained calf will be in street clothes. Ayo is shut down for at least 10 days and then will be re-evaluated. I took a pre-med class at Kent, so I’m basically a doctor. Out til Mid-Jan. – 6:36 PM
