Giddey spoils fellow Australian's first NBA start

Australian guard Tyrese Proctor has shone in his first NBA start for Cleveland but had the milestone spoiled by compatriot Josh Giddey, who played a key role in Chicago's 136-125 win.

Matas Buzelis and Nikola Vucevic each scored 24 points as the Bulls pulled away in the final period at Rocket Arena on Saturday (AEDT) for their second victory over the Cavs in three days.

Vucevic, who also grabbed 15 rebounds, had 11 points and six boards in the fourth quarter, helping Chicago (12-15) win consecutive games for the first time in a month.
