CHICAGO — So much for all that talk about momentum building after the Warriors’ blowout win over the San Antonio Spurs Friday in front of a record-setting crowd.
The Warriors took one step forward at the start of this road trip only to take another step back Sunday afternoon, falling 132-118 to the Chicago Bulls.
Klay Thompson finished with 26 points with eight 3s and Stephen Curry added 20 but this was Nikola Vucevic’s game. The Bulls big man earned loud “Voo” chants from the crowd as the game went on before he finished with a career-high 43 points on 18 of 21 shooting and 5 of 10 from 3-point land. He also grabbed 13 rebounds and had four assists to help the Bulls snap a three-game losing skid and earn their first win over the Warriors since 2017.
