The Chicago Bulls ( 39 - 23 ) overcame a 10 - point fourth quarter deficit to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder ( 34 - 28 ) 108 - 105 on Thursday at the United Center . This game attained instant - classic status with some late game heroics from unlikely characters . While Russell Westbrook continued his dominance with 43 points , eight rebounds , and seven assists , it was Chicago 's E'Twaun Moore and Nikola Mirotic who stole the show late . Mirotic had 26 points and eight boards in 34 minutes off the bench . Moore went 9 - for - 10 in the game and put up 13 points in the fourth quarter . With time winding down , Pau Gasol kicked it out to Moore , who canned the go - ahead three pointer . Oklahoma City could n't close out Chicago as it allowed a sizeable fourth - quarter lead slip away . Russell Westbrook 's triple - double streak ended at four games , and it was fitting that it came to an end in Chicago , where Michael Jordan strung together seven consecutive triple - doubles back in 1989 . Still , Westbrook kept his streak of 40 - point games alive with his third straight 40 - point outing . The Thunder will return to action Sunday when they host the Raptors . Chicago has been devastated by injuries lately , but it pulled together a complete effort to score a huge win in front of the home crowd . In addition to Mirotic and Moore 's strong outings , Pau Gasol notched another double - double with 21 points and 12 rebounds . The Bulls have a quick turnaround as they will travel to Indiana on Friday to face the Pacers .
