Hezonja hit three three - pointers and pulled down five rebounds while not recording a single turnover in the game . Teammate Nikola Vucevic , however , was the team leader in points scored , recording 24 on the night . Breakout sophomore Aaron Gordon continued his streak of impressive play , notching a 13 - point , 15 - rebound double - double . For the Bulls , the loss is the fourth in a row and puts them a game outside the Eastern Conference playoff picture . The Bulls remain without All-Star Jimmy Butler , and his absence has shown , as the team has now allowed 100 or more points in 15 consecutive games . No Bull scored more than 16 in Orlando , and the team shot just 38 percent on the night . Orlando also established a sizable 51 - 43 advantage on the glass , as Chicago 's big men simply could not perform on Wednesday . Chicago 's next matchup will come on Saturday , as they host the equally disappointing Houston Rockets . The Magic will host the free - falling Phoenix Suns on Friday .
