Wembanyana also had nine rebounds and five blocks two days after
his 40-point outburst in a win over the Phoenix Suns as the
Spurs closed out a 4-0 trip. DeAaron Fox added 17 points and
nine assists.
Jalen Smith tied his career high with 23 points for the Bulls,
and Nic Claxton had 17 off the bench.
Bulls first-round pick Caleb Wilson scored 15 points in 15
minutes before leaving with a right hand injury in the third
quarter. Wilson’s college season was cut short last winter by a
pair of hand injuries.
The Bulls led 64-42 midway through the second quarter, their
biggest lead of the season, thanks to a 10-for-12 start from
3-point range. Chicago scored 41 points in the first quarter and
shot 66% in the first half.
The Spurs opened the third quarter with an 18-3 run to wipe out
the Bulls' lead, enabled by five Chicago turnovers, then took
control with an 11-2 run in the fourth quarter.
Norman Powell, the Bulls' second-leading scorer, missed his
second straight game with back spasms. Spurs guard Devin Vassell
sat out his second in a row because of adductor tightness.
