Talen Horton-Tucker scored a career-high 28 points and Russell Westbrook notched 25 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the Lakers.
Anthony Davis had 20 points and six rebounds before committing his second technical foul with two minutes and 20 seconds left in the third quarter, and was ejected for only the second time in his career.
The Bulls had led by as much as 28 at one point, but the Lakers brought the deficit back to six early in the third quarter before the visitors stormed clear again.
