The Chicago Bulls (21 - 9) defeated the New Orleans Pelicans (15 - 15) 107 - 100 on Saturday. Chicago is on a six - game winning streak. Jimmy Butler led the way with a game - high 33 points Saturday, doing the dirty work to get to the free - throw line for 10 attempts to convert nine free points. The Bulls spread out the responsibilities, using a deep rotation that saw Taj Gibson collect a double - double of 12 points and 10 rebounds and Aaron Brooks post 13 points and four assists off the bench. Kirk Hinrich sat out a third straight game with a hamstring injury. Chicago will go on the road to play the Indiana Pacers on Monday. New Orleans has lost two of their last three games. Anthony Davis put up 29 points, 11 rebounds and six blocks playing in front of his hometown crowd Saturday, and Tyreke Evans pitched in 26 points, five rebound and five assists, but the Pelicans' good performances from Davis and Evans were n't enough to overcome the poor play from several of their role players. They gave up 23 points on 15 turnovers, essentially giving the game away. New Orleans will host the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday.
