Coby White and Nikola Vucevic recorded double-doubles to power the short-handed Chicago Bulls past the host Dallas Mavericks 115-112 on Friday.

The result ended the Mavericks' hopes of reaching the Western Conference play-in tournament. Dallas came into the evening trailing the Oklahoma City Thunder by one game for the West's final play-in spot yet played without Kyrie Irving, Tim Hardaway Jr., Christian Wood, Josh Green and Maxi Kleber.
