The Chicago Bulls edged the Phoenix Suns 105–103 on March 5 at Footprint Center in a low-efficiency defensive battle. Collin Sexton led Chicago with 30 points, supported by Torrey Jones's 21 points, while Devin Booker paced Phoenix with 27 and Grayson Allen added 21. The Bulls shot 47.7 percent from the field compared to Phoenix's 39.1 percent, a decisive advantage that proved the difference in a game that finished well under the Vegas total of 224.5. Chicago's second quarter proved pivotal—the team outscored Phoenix 31–30 in that frame and never relinquished control. The Bulls' defensive rating of 99.2 held the Suns to just 13 three-pointers despite Phoenix's volume attempt, while Chicago's balanced playmaking (23 assists on 12 turnovers) limited self-inflicted damage. Phoenix's offensive rating of 99.2 reflected their struggle to generate rhythm, with the team turning the ball over 14 times. The victory keeps Chicago in the playoff conversation as the season enters its final stretch.
