The Atlanta Hawks narrowly fell to the Chicago Bulls, 126–123, in a highly competitive Eastern Conference matchup at State Farm Arena. Despite leading for much of the contest and receiving standout performances from Trae Young and Jalen Johnson, Atlanta was unable to close the game in the final minutes.

There are a ton of impressive records in the NBA—Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game, LeBron’s scoring record, etc. And somehow, the Chicago Bulls being undefeated since I’ve started covering them here at Bleacher Nation feels like a one-above-all kind of achievement. I’m officially claiming myself as the lucky charm… at least until they lose. But with the way Josh Giddey and the team have been playing lately, is a legit playoff push actually on the cards? Let’s talk Bulls basketball. ...

The Chicago Bulls are on a four-game win streak after beating the Atlanta Hawks tonight, 126–123, in a game that went down to the wire. This game had more low moments than high ones, but all’s well that ends well. Trust me, you’ll want to read this game story. First Half: A Tough Watch This is the fun (not) of being a Chicago Bulls fan. One night, the rim is as big as the ocean, and the misses are as real as Santa Claus.

The Atlanta Hawks were back in action Tuesday evening to face the Chicago Bulls. No one will forget the game two days ago, where both teams scored 150, but the Bulls came out on top, finishing with 152. Defense was hard to come by in that game for both teams, and the goal for this […]

The Chicago Bulls are angling to notch their fourth straight win on Tuesday night, when they’ll square off against the Atlanta Hawks for the second time in three days. During their previous encounter, a defense-free 152-150 non-overtime Bulls victory on Sunday, Chicago couldn’t miss . The Bulls connected on 57.6 percent of their field goals (47.6 percent of their triples), but a pretty-weak 66.7 percent of their 39 free throw looks. Nine players scored in double figures. Chicago also dish...

NBA POWER RANKINGS — The Oklahoma City Thunder don’t lose much. So, whenever they do, we sit up and take notice. The San Antonio Spurs’ Emirates NBA Cup semifinal victory against Oklahoma exposed perhaps the club’s top vulnerability (if you can even call it that): multifaceted scoring centers. The West’s three other best teams all boast prolific All-Stars at the position, so at least the playoffs might be a bit more interesting than Oklahoma City’s regular-season run for 70-plus wins. ...

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere I go. Especially the green-lettered “W3” streak sitting next to the red Chicago Bulls logo in the NBA standings — that’s my idea of festive decoration. And tonight, among a slate of games as long as the naughty list, I’ve checked it twice to make sure I’m ready to watch the Josh Giddey Bulls take on the Atlanta Hawks in a bit of a Christmas rematch.

It appears two-time All-Star Bulls center Nikola Vucevic has recovered from a concerning recent dip in production. Prior to this past week’s two surprising home-and-home wins against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Vucevic averaged just 11.6 points on a .387/.304/.600 slash line, plus 6.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 0.6 steals per. Chicago head coach Billy Donovan responded to his dismal output and disinterested defense with a quicker hook than usual; Vucevic wound up averaging a modest-for-him 27...

The Chicago Bulls are streaking again, but this time, it’s the good kind! I’ve started to come around to the idea that the best defense really is a good offense. Watching the Bulls beat the Atlanta Hawks without playing an ounce of defense — a 152–150 final! What!?! — only reinforces that feeling. There’s a lot to hate and a lot more to love about it all. But one thing stands out above the rest: Matas Buzelis breaking out right in front of our very eyes. Let’s talk Bulls basketball. ...

The Chicago Bulls were all-offense, no-defense against the Atlanta Hawks in a Sunday matinee. But that offense was quite stupendous, and Chicago outlasted the home team to win its third straight game at the buzzer, 152-150. This represents the Bulls’ first three-game win streak in 2025-26 since their 5-0 season start. That 152-point tally represented a season-high for the Bulls, as did the team’s 57.6 percent field goal conversion rate and its 41 assists, per K.C. Johnson of Chicago ...

What a wild week and a half it’s been for the Chicago Bulls. They’ve gone from a seven-game losing streak to winning three of their last four, with a chance to keep it rolling tonight. Watching the Bulls convincingly beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in a mini two-game set has given their fans a serious “déjà vu” moment. Not a flashback to the ’90s or the 2010s, but to earlier this season, when Chicago opened the year on an out-of-character five-game winning streak and briefly scared the East ...

Maybe the Chicago Bulls should just play the Cleveland Cavaliers 82 times a year? Stunningly, the Bulls managed to pull off their second straight double-digit defeat of the Cavaliers on Friday night, a 136-125 road victory , behind a fairly balanced, fast-breaking attack. Forward Matas Buzelis and center Nikola Vucevic led the way with 24 points each. With the win (its third in the last four games), Chicago improved to a borderline-respectable 12-15 record, and will next face off aga...
