For the second consecutive NBA 2018-19 Regular Season match, Lauri Markkanen put up 30 points. However, the Chicago Bulls lost both games. On Wednesday, the Finnisher made 10/19 from the field and tied his season-high by nailing five threes.

After falling three points shy from his career-high again, the 21-year-old forward mentioned: “We gotta finish quarters better. Everybody’s gotta step up. I thought the guys that played, they played well”.

The Bulls agreed with the Washington Wizards to trade Jabari Parker and Bobby Portis for Otto Porter Jr. “Change is always tough, but next man up. It’s not the first time” Markkanen added.
