By Matt Motyka in News on Jan 31, 2009 4:30PM

The Bulls cruised past the Sacramento Kings on Friday, winning 109-88. An even match up for the first six minutes, the game quickly turned in the Bulls’ favor as Chicago translated eight forced turnovers into a 22-9 scoring run. Their lead would never again be in jeopardy, as the Bulls shot nearly 19 percentage points better than their opponents. Ben Gordon and Luol Deng had 20 points apiece, and Tyrus Thomas contributed a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Chicago will face a tougher test tonight when they visit the Phoenix Suns.
