Bulls 105, Cavaliers 102—Final

Cristiano Felicio's career night and a scorching fourth quarter fueled the Chicago Bulls' 105-102 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday at the United Center.

The Bulls ripped off a 15-0 run during the final frame, improved to 40-40 and stayed alive in the playoff hunt. Jimmy Butler paced the team with 21 points and six assists.

But no player was more impressive than Felicio, who posted career-high marks with 23 minutes and 16 points. He was 7-of-7 from the floor, also adding five rebounds and two blocks.

Chicago needed every bit of those contributions because Cleveland (56-24) netted 19 three-pointers—seven of which came from J.R Smith. His 24 points only trailed LeBron James' 33 on 13-of-17 shooting.

Matthew Dellavedova air-balled a late uncontested potential game-winning three, so the Cavaliers were unable to seal home-court advantage in the Eastern Conference.
