Thanks to a 32-point outburst in the second quarter, OKC finished Orlando Pro Summer League action with a 86-73 victory over the Chicago Bulls. The OKC victory was the final of five straight games in Orlando for OKC, which finished 2-3 on the week.
The win was sweet for OKC as it proved it could win without its two leading scorers for the week, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook, both of whom did not play. The overall top pick in the 2008 NBA draft, Chicago's Derrick Rose, also didn't see action in the contest.
Down by three to end the first period, OKC found its deadly shooting touch in the second quarter, hitting 13-of-17 shots in the stanza to take a 10-point lead into the locker room. OKC also took advantage of 14 Chicago first-half turnovers.
D.J. White scored a week-high 20 points to lead OKC, while Ronald Dupree added 17 in just over 19 minutes of action. Former Oklahoma State standout JamesOn Curry paced the Bulls (2-3) with 17 points.
