The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Chicago Bulls 112–103 on December 27 at the United Center, as Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way with 29 points while Rit-Man Rollins added 20 in a road victory that fell short of the Vegas total of 233.5. The Bucks' superior offensive efficiency proved decisive—Milwaukee shot 46.5 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers while forcing the Bulls into a sluggish 41.9 percent shooting night. Chicago's Nikola Vučević and Coby White each scored 16 points but couldn't generate enough offensive rhythm, with the Bulls managing only 28 assists to Milwaukee's 22 despite their efforts to move the ball. The third quarter proved pivotal, with the Bucks outscoring Chicago 31–30 to build separation. Milwaukee's defense was stifling down the stretch—the Bucks recorded 12 steals and held a 117.2 offensive rating against Chicago's 104.0, while committing just 10 turnovers compared to the Bulls' 15. The road win underscores Milwaukee's depth and defensive versatility as the team continues its push through the Eastern Conference standings.
