SLUG: nets-hold-off-bulls-ending-longest-losing-streak
The Brooklyn Nets returned to the win column on Jan. 16, 2026, fending off a late surge by the Chicago Bulls to halt the NBA’s longest active losing streak.
Chicago rallied in the closing minutes, but Brooklyn maintained its edge down the stretch to secure the victory and finally put an end to a slide that had lingered longer than any other in the league.
The result marks a much-needed boost for the Nets, while the Bulls left the floor after seeing their comeback bid fall just short.
