Coby White delivered an outstanding performance, racking up 36 points as the Chicago Bulls steamrolled the Los Angeles Lakers with a decisive 146-115 victory on Saturday night, overshadowing LeBron James’ return from injury. At the same time, Josh Giddey came close to achieving a quadruple-double, showcasing his all-around abilities.
While Luka Doncic scored an impressive 29 out of his total 34 points in the first half, making eight successful three-pointers, LeBron managed 17 points after missing seven games. Despite these efforts, neither were able to halt the Bulls’ relentless offensive power, which dismantled the Lakers’ typically robust defense. This victory marked Chicago’s seventh win in nine games and set a new high for points scored against the Lakers this season, topping any previous game by 12 points.
