The Chicago Bulls lost 134-99 to the Boston Celtics, with the loss highlighted by a close match between rookie Caleb Wilson and Jayson Tatum. Tatum scored 23 points, while Wilson's favorite shot was a turnaround jumper in the midrange. Despite this, Wilson remains a raw rookie prospect at age 20 and can't hit from 3, despite a 5-for-28 (17.9%) start to the season from behind the arc. The Bulls' defense was criticized for allowing 19 offensive rebounds for 16 second-chance points, a disparity spread evenly between the Celtics' frontcourt and backcourt. Despite improvements in their off-ball help on the weak side, the Bulls' shooting remains poor.
