 CLEVELAND (AP) - Ben Wallace's hair was as uncontrollable as ever. For one of the few times since he changed teams, so was he. Wallace scored 14 points with 19 rebounds, a season-high seven blocks and two huge free throws in the final minutes to lead the Chicago Bulls to an 84-78 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night.
Wallace, playing one of his best all-around games since signing as a free agent with the Bulls, dominated inside as Chicago snapped a six-game losing streak in Cleveland and improved to 8-2 in the Central.
"He was outstanding," Bulls coach Scott Skiles said of Wallace, who also had five assists in 44 minutes. "When he plays with that kind of effort, he can put up those kind of numbers. He was on from the beginning. We left him out there and he made big plays."
