Bulls Fall To Memphis
The Bulls once again squandered an early lead, falling to Memphis 105-96, their third straight loss. The Bulls led Memphis by 13 after the first quarter but the Grizz chipped away and ultimately sprinted past the Bulls in the fourth quarter for the win. Luol Deng led the Bulls with 23 points and Derrick Rose had 20 points. The Bulls hope to reverse the newest losing streak this weekend, but it won't be easy up against the Dallas Mavericks (7 p.m., CSN).

College Basketball
NIU wrapped up their regular season on a winning note, edging Toledo 60-58. Next up for NIU is the Mid-American Conference tournament where they'll play Eastern Michigan on Sunday.

Spring Training
The Cubs walloped the A's 9-3 while the Sox and Angels played to a 4-4 tie.
