Chicago Bulls player grades from Friday night’s 119-83 loss to the Warriors

In what felt like a litmus test game for the Bulls, Stephen Curry and the Warriors dominated the final three quarters en route to a 119-93 win.

Golden State improved to an NBA-best 11-1 behind Curry’s game-high 40 points, and outscored Chicago 35-17 in a game-changing third quarter.

Behind a strong first quarter from Zach LaVine, the Bulls threw the first punch by opening up a 29-23 lead at the end of one. The game turned in the middle of the second quarter, as the Warriors put together an 18-5 run to take a 51-45 lead into the halftime locker room.

The third quarter was a Curry masterclass, as one of the best players in the world lived up to that label. The Warriors sharpshooter had 9 of the first 11 points of the period for Golden State, as the Bulls fell behind 86-62 heading into the fourth.

The Bulls fell to 8-4 on the year, and will see the Clippers on Sunday evening as part of their west coast road trip. Here is a look at individual player grades for Chicago:
