On Friday (Feb. 22), the Chicago Bulls paid a visit to the Orlando Magic. The two Eastern Conference teams battled in a close NBA matchup which was tied with just over a minute to go. There was a clutch three-pointer late from the Magic only for Chicago to answer with two free throws to win it. Here are the five stars from the intense matchup.
Lauri Markkanen - Chicago Bulls
Markkanen was the hero for the visitors on Friday as his free throws with very little time on the clock sealed the 110-109 win. Markkanen would finish his night with 25 points, 11 rebounds, and two assists.
The #Bulls are cooking and Lauri definitely has something to do with it.
