Vucevic had 33 points and 11 rebounds, and the Magic snapped a six-game losing streak with a 121-114 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night.
Orlando (14-27) shot a season-high 59 percent from the field in its first win in Chicago since an 83-82 victory on Dec. 16, 2013. The Magic had lost three in a row and 12 of 15 against the Bulls since the start of the 2010-11 season.
Oladipo also scored 33 points in Orlando's highest scoring game of the season, and rookie Elfrid Payton added 10 points and seven assists.
"I guess the worm turned," said Orlando Magic coach Jacque Vaughn, whose team failed to score more than 98 points in any game during the losing streak. "We were very aggressive with our approach. Our pace was great."

Vucevic was 16 for 24 from the field in his NBA-best 23rd double-double of the season. The terrific performance for the 7-foot center included a drive and left-handed dunk over forward Pau Gasol late in third period."I just wanted to get to the rim and finish strong," Vucevic said. "I got up high enough and I wanted to dunk it. I don't do it very often, so I'm sure they were surprised."
The Chicago Bulls (26-13) lost for the seventh time against teams currently with sub-500 records. Five of those losses were at home.
