Zach LaVine scores 38 points, Bulls hold off Kings 122-114

CHICAGO (AP) Zach LaVine scored 38 points and the Chicago Bulls beat the slumping Sacramento Kings 122-114 on Saturday night.
The Bulls bounced back after getting dominated by Joel Embiid in a tight loss at Eastern Conference-leading Philadelphia on Friday night. They withstood a fourth quarter push and handed the Kings their sixth loss in a row.
LaVine, making a case for his first All-Star invitation, hit 15 of 20 shots in his fourth straight game with 30 or more points. He also had three steals.
“Zach LaVine is deserving of being an All-Star,” coach Billy Donovan said. “He has played as well as anybody. I can’t imagine that there’s been many guys that have played better than him.”
