The Chicago Bulls should have beaten the struggling Orlando Magic (25-53) even without point guard Derrick Rose.

Rose scored nine points, grabbed two rebounds and dished out two assists in his return from meniscectomy surgery on Feb. 27.

The Bulls went 10-10 in Rose’s absence, but they lost, 105-103, to the Magic on Wednesday.

At 46-32, the Bulls are seeded No. 4 in the Eastern Conference with four regular season games left.
