OAKLAND, Calif., Nov. 22 (UPI) -- Larry Hughes and Andres Nocioni combined for four free throws in the final 15 seconds Friday, allowing the Chicago Bulls to hold off Golden State 115-110.

In an entertaining game that saw the teams separated by no more than six points all night, the Bulls won for the first time on their current seven-game road trip. They have four more games to play before returning home.

Hughes scored 26 points and rookie Derrick Rose had 25. Drew Gooden added 18 points and 16 rebounds.

Golden State, which had won two straight, was led by Stephen Jackson with 32.

Hughes hit two free throws with 10 seconds to go, boosting Chicago's lead to five points. After Anthony Randolph made a layup for Golden State with 3 seconds remaining, Nocioni converted two from the line to clinch the win.
