LOS ANGELES: The Chicago Bulls stunned the Los Angeles Lakers 146-115 on Saturday, spoiling superstar LeBron James's return from a two-week absence with a groin injury.

The NBA's all-time leading scorer James delivered 17 points, six rebounds, and four assists in 31 minutes on court.
Luka Doncic, back in action after resting a sore ankle, drilled eight three-pointers on the way to a team-high 34 points, but he ran out of steam in the second half and no one else stepped up.
Austin Reaves, who had also missed action with ankle trouble, scored 25 points. Rui Hachimura, playing limited minutes after missing 12 games with a knee injury, scored five for the Lakers, who are third in the Western Conference.
