Josh Giddey delivered a masterclass performance last night, coming tantalizingly close to a quadruple-double as the Chicago Bulls dismantled the Los Angeles Lakers 146-115. The Australian guard showcased his all-around brilliance, finishing with 15 points, 17 assists, 10 rebounds, and an astounding 8 steals.
The 22-year-old’s performance was part of a collective effort by the Bulls, who had eight players score at least nine points. Coby White led the team with 36 points, while Matas Buzelis added 31. The Bulls’ depth and versatility overwhelmed the Lakers, who struggled defensively despite the return of LeBron James from injury.
Giddey’s near quadruple-double was a historic feat, as he fell just two steals short of becoming the first player since David Robinson in 1997 to achieve the rare milestone. Bulls play-by-play commentator Adam Amin described it as a “special performance,” and fans couldn’t agree more.

With this win, the Bulls improved to 7-2 in their last nine games, solidifying their position as one of the hottest teams in the league. Giddey’s breakout season continues to turn heads, as he averages 22.8 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 7.8 assists in March, proving himself as a cornerstone for Chicago’s future.
