Scottie Lindsey knocked down a three-pointer in the final seconds of the game to give the Windy City Bulls a 102-101 victory over the Wisconsin Herd Wednesday night in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The Windy City Bulls, presented by BMO, the NBA G League affiliate of the Chicago Bulls, overcame a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit to hand the Herd their first loss of the season.

The Bulls came out of the gates hot, jumping out to a 12-5 lead after the first two minutes. However, Wisconsin weathered the storm and eventually took a 28-24 edge into the second quarter.

In the second period, the Herd steadily increased their lead, up by as much as 14 before Windy City cut it to 10 points heading into halftime.

Tyler Cook took over the game coming out of the break, scoring 14 points in the third quarter on perfect 3-for-3 shooting from the field and 4-for-4 shooting from the charity stripe. However, the Bulls and Herd each scored 31 points, and Windy City entered the final 12 minutes trailing by 10.

In the fourth quarter, Cook and Devon Dotson - both Two-Way players for the Chicago Bulls - scored 10 points apiece and helped lead the comeback for Windy City. Meanwhile, the Herd shot just 2-for-9 from the free throw line in the period, including missing a pair of free throws immediately before Lindsey's game-winning three-pointer.

After a strong second half, Cook finished with his second consecutive 30-point outing, scoring a game-high 32 points, grabbing six boards and racking up four steals. Dotson nearly notched a double-double with 22 points, nine rebounds and six assists, while Lindsey had 16 points on 4-for-6 shooting from downtown.

Terry Larrier came off the bench to lead the Herd in scoring, putting up 24 points and grabbing six rebounds.

The Bulls earned their second win of the season while handing Wisconsin its first loss of the year. The Bulls and Herd now stand at 2-7 and 6-1, respectively.

Next, the Bulls host the Sioux Falls Skyforce at NOW Arena on Dec. 11-12. The Dec. 11 matchup is slated for 7 p.m. on NBAGLeague.com, while the Dec. 12 game is set for 5 p.m. on NBC Sports Chicago.
