The Chicago Bulls suffered another defeat against the Cleveland Cavaliers, who maintained their perfect record at 14-0. This marks the Bulls' second loss to the Cavaliers in a week, with the latest game ending 144-126.

Starting point guard Josh Giddey had a challenging night, playing only 15 minutes and contributing minimally before being benched for the second half. Bulls head coach Billy Donovan opted for Ayo Dosunmu instead, citing Giddey's foul trouble as a factor. Giddey accepted responsibility for his performance, acknowledging he wouldn't have played himself either.
