Nikola Vucevic saved the Chicago Bulls from disaster.
At the 9:16 mark of the fourth quarter, the Bulls were in complete control. They were up 21 points on a Portland Trail Blazers team missing six players. With 18 threes on the board before the final 12 minutes even started, this was a game that should have ended without an ounce of drama.
But Stacey King doesn’t call them the “cardiac Bulls” for nothing.
Two nights after an impressive win over the second-place Denver Nuggets in the West, Chicago proceeded to give up their 21-point advantage. A Donovan Clingan and-one led to Portland taking a stunning 119-116 lead with 47.2 seconds left on the clock. The Bulls were on the brink of an embarrassing collapse and a new season low point.
Once the clock ticked down to 8.2 seconds remaining after Jerami Grant knocked down one of two free throws, Billy Donovan called a timeout. The Bulls inbounded the ball only for Deni Avdija to use the Trail Blazers’ last foul. Donovan chose to call his last timeout to draw up a potential game-trying or game-winning bucket. The Bulls opted for the latter.
As Coby White corralled the inbound, he spun into the paint before splitting two defenders and finding Nikola Vucevic stationed behind the arc. The big man caught it and instantly let it fly.
Buzzer sounded. Ball went in. Bulls win.

— Bleacher Nation Bulls (@BN_Bulls) November 20, 2025What a great pass from White, and what an even better clutch make from Vucevic. The big man finished the night with 27 points on 11-19 shooting. While he may have struggled immensely on the glass, playing a part in Portland having 38 second-chance points, he undoubtedly redeemed himself with the game on the line.
