The Chicago Bulls began their final West Coast trip of the season on a low note, losing 112-103 to the Sacramento Kings on Monday night at the Golden 1 Center.
Coming out of the All-Star break, the Bulls faced the second-hardest schedule in the league to finish the season. There weren’t many guaranteed wins on the calendar in the final two months, but Monday’s matchup in Sacramento looked like one of them.
With Alex Caruso back from a two-month absence and Zach LaVine cleared to play after missing the last game with knee soreness, the Bulls seemed positioned for a dominant night. But they bled points even with their top players on the court, falling behind by 20 at halftime.
