Kawhi Leonard's box score numbers did not accurately reflect his defensive effort against the Chicago Bulls, and although the Spurs suffered just their first road loss of the season, Leonard's defensive efficiency was on full display. The San Antonio forward held Jimmy Butler to zero points in the first half, contesting every shot Butler had to force up in an attempt to get some rhythm going. Leonard went on to dominate his matchup to the tune of 24 points, eight rebounds, five assists and one steal on 10 - of - 19 shooting, but it was not enough to keep Dwyane Wade from the free throw line and iron out a win. Wade did his damage from the charity stripe, where his 9 - of - 13 shooting kept the Spurs comeback just out of reach. Rajon Rondo put together the best all around box score performance of the night, evidenced by his 12 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists on 6 - of - 12 shooting.
