Matas Buzelis added 21 points, Ayo Dosunmu scored 18 and Kevin Huerter added 14. All three players made four 3s.

James Harden led Los Angeles with 24 points. John Collins scored 23 and matched a season high with five 3-pointers.

Kawhi Leonard missed his third straight game. The six-time All-Star has been dealing with a sprained right ankle and bruised left knee.

The Bulls led 70-49 at halftime after dominating Los Angeles 45-19 in the second period.

They trailed 37-36 when Vucevic made a hook shot to spark a 22-6 run. Dosunmu finished it with a pair of 3s, bumping the lead to 58-43 with 3:20 remaining.

The Clippers pulled within 80-74 midway through the third after Collins hit a 3. But the Bulls quickly regained control. Tre Jones made a floater for Chicago to start a 17-3 run, capped by fastbreak layup by Huerter that made it 97-77.

Up next Clippers: Host the Lakers on Thursday.

Bulls: Visit Minnesota on Thursday.
