The Chicago Bulls edged the Portland Trail Blazers 122–121 on November 19 at Moda Center in a tightly contested matchup decided by a single point. Jerami Grant led Portland with 33 points while Dario Avdija added 32, but the duo's offensive production could not overcome Chicago's balanced attack. Nikola Vučević paced the Bulls with 27 points and Coby White contributed 25 as Chicago shot 47.9 percent from the field and connected on 21 three-pointers compared to Portland's 12. The Bulls' ball movement proved decisive—they recorded 36 assists to the Blazers' 27—while maintaining a marginal rebounding disadvantage at 38 to Portland's 64. Chicago's third quarter proved pivotal, outscoring Portland 36–24 to build separation before Portland surged with 39 points in the fourth. Both teams posted nearly identical offensive and defensive ratings near 110, underscoring the razor-thin margin between the squads. The loss keeps Portland searching for consistency as Chicago's superior three-point shooting and assist total proved the difference in a single-possession thriller.
