The Chicago Bulls are gearing up to host the Toronto Raptors in their next preseason game on Tuesday, October 17. The team has been working on improving their performance, particularly in perimeter shooting and defense, since the start of their preseason. Although they have not had the best results in previous games, the Bulls have shown significant progress in addressing the issues that hindered them last season.
As they prepare for the upcoming match, the Raptors are coming off a 112-99 win against the Sacramento Kings in their first warm-up game. Both teams will be keen to maintain momentum as they head into the penultimate game before the regular season begins.
For the Bulls, this game serves as an important stepping stone before they face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves and conclude their preseason. The team will be aiming for a repeat of their previous encounter with the Raptors, in which they stayed alive with a 109-105 win in the play-in tournament. Nevertheless, despite this victory, the Bulls eventually succumbed to the Miami Heat and failed to make the playoffs.
With the playoffs still fresh in their minds, both the Chicago Bulls and the Toronto Raptors will be determined to prove themselves in the upcoming game. Fans can expect an exciting and closely-fought contest as these two teams battle for victory on the court.
