The Bulls moved into 10th place in the East’s play-in picture
But if they’re going to have staying power, they know it will take urgency they didn’t show until rallying from 10 points down to beat the Timberwolves in double OT

Mike Conley said they liked this V-action they were running late — with himself, Anderson and Gobert — but that it dried up once Chicago started switching that action, forcing isolation. Said they might need to rotate other players into the V. Mentioned McDaniels specifically. pic.twitter.com/7J4YO6gJoW – 12:41 AM

Mike Conley on what he will need to do on O if Anthony Edwards is to miss time:

Today has gone *perfectly* for the Lakers’ playoff chances (GSW, NOP & MIN all lose)… but it’s mostly meaningless if they lose tonight.
With a loss, they’ll basically be in 12th place, with a win they’ll be in 7th, 1 game back of GSW for 6th & they have the tiebreaker w/ GSW. – 11:06 PM
