The Golden State Warriors faced a tough loss against the Chicago Bulls, with the game taking a dramatic turn as Stephen Curry's troublesome right ankle buckled once again. The Warriors struggled in another late-game defeat, with Curry leaving the game with just under four minutes remaining due to the injury. Coach Steve Kerr provided limited information on Curry's condition, stating that his foot was being treated in a bucket of ice.

Despite the setback, DeMar DeRozan played a pivotal role in securing the victory for the Bulls, scoring 33 points and making crucial plays down the stretch. DeRozan's three-point play with 26 seconds left proved to be the deciding factor in the game.

Klay Thompson briefly put the Warriors ahead with a three-pointer, but it was not enough to overcome the Bulls' strong performance. Nikola Vucevic also had a standout game for Chicago, contributing 33 points, 11 rebounds, and five assists.

Off the court, Chicago Bulls assistant coach Chris Fleming was involved in a controversial incident in a previous game but was cleared of any disciplinary action by the league. The Bulls will now shift their focus to their upcoming game against the Los Angeles Clippers, while the Warriors will look to bounce back against the San Antonio Spurs.
