Podziemski scores 21, Warriors beat Bulls 123-91 for Chicago's 7th straight loss

CHICAGO (AP) --- Brandin Podziemski scored 21 points off the bench, Jimmy
Butler added 19 in his return to the lineup and the injury-depleted Golden
State Warriors beat the Chicago Bulls 123-91 on Sunday night to extend the
longest active losing streak in the NBA.
The Bulls have lost seven in a row, their most since an eight-game skid in the
2019-20 season.
Quinten Post also scored 19 points for the Warriors.
Golden State shot 22 of 47 from beyond the arc with seven players connecting
from long range. Post and Podziemski each hit five 3s.
Josh Giddey scored 18 points and Matas Buzelis added 16 for the Bulls, who shot
36% from the field and were out-rebounded 51-38.
The Warriors held an opponent to under 100 points for a third straight game and
limited Chicago to its fewest points in a game this season.
Butler started after missing two games (left knee), but Golden State remained
without Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Al Horford. Coach Steve Kerr said
trio might return Friday against Minnesota.
Buddy Hield and Post each hit a 3-pointer in the first 90 seconds and Golden
State led by as many as 16 before taking a 60-46 advantage into the
intermission. The Warriors hit their first four 3-point attempts and were 12
for 25 in the first half.
Golden State stretched its lead to 24-points in the third quarter. Chicago used
a 17-1 run to narrow its deficit to 87-79 early in the fourth before the
Warriors pulled away late.
Chicago played without four regulars: Kevin Huerter, Tre Jones, Isaac Okoro and
Jalen Smith. Ayo Dosunmu started despite right thumb sprain and
Curry is expected to resume practice as soon as Wednesday as he comes back from
a left quadriceps contusion and muscle strain.
