The Chicago Bulls made some NBA history on Wednesday night in the midst of finishing off one of their most impressive wins of the season, a 122-119 double-overtime thriller over the New York Knicks.
In what is believed to be a league first, the Bulls organized a special trip for the players to take their moms on the team's charter as they traveled to the New York City area in advance of Chicago's game at Madison Square Garden. Bulls senior manager of player development and team services Shaun Hickombottom put the trip together, making sure the Bulls' players and mothers could enjoy several activities together while creating an experience everyone would remember.
