  • What to Watch For …

  • After the Bulls got beat down by the Knicks in Game 2 of Summer League, they went to the gym, bulked up, downed some raw egg yolks, and returned the favor to the Toronto Raptors. The 93-83 score didn’t reflect just how dominant this Summer League Bulls’ squad looked, and a big reason for that dominance was the play of Dalen Terry. The rookie had his most well-rounded performance yet, dropping 14 points with 5 rebounds and 2 assists in just 20 minutes of action. The Bulls had him play much more of an off-ball role than we saw in the first two contests, and I expect to see a similar approach in today’s outing.
  • With Terry moving off the ball, Carlik Jones took over a bulk of the facilitating duties. The second-year point guard led the Bulls with 17 points and 5 assists in a perfect 7-7 showing from the field. Does he have another big game in him?
  • Duke center Mark Williams was a player many Bulls fans talked about during the predraft process, and they’ll now get a chance to see him in action with the Hornets. With a beastly seven-foot frame, I’m pretty darn scared to see how frontcourt guys like Justin Lewis and Marko Simonovic can hold up. This could get ugly.
