Coby White scored 12 of his game-high 22 points in the fourth quarter, and Chicago pulled away for a 114–95 home victory Thursday over San Antonio.

It was the third consecutive win and eighth in the last 11 games for the Bulls (13–17), who have risen to 11th in the Eastern Conference.

 “We never gave up; we never let the life flow out of us or anything like that,” said White, who had six rebounds and five assists. “The guys in this locker room continuously believe in each other. We continuously speak positive energy into each other, and we care about each other, and we want to win. That hasn’t changed throughout the entire season.”

White scored both of his 3-pointers in the fourth quarter, including one that capped a 15–5 run and gave Chicago a 90–75 edge.
