On Friday night, Bulls were already down by 11 points after one quarter against the Portland Trail Blazers and ended up getting blown out 105-87. They couldn't get their shots to fall in that loss, finishing with just a 36.1 percent field goal percentage.

On Saturday night, the Jazz lost their second game in a row when they were defeated 106-94 by the New Orleans Pelicans on their home court. They shot the ball pretty well in that loss, but they also turned the ball over 18 times.
