Best player or need? Texas' Mohamed Bamba could represent best fit next to Lauri Markkanen

Texas big man Mohamed Bamba’s knowledge of the Bulls’ roster was as impressive as his awareness of the concerns teams have expressed about him leading into the upcoming draft.

But the biggest revelation from Bamba may have been the Bulls’ strategy leading to draft night, as one can surmise the franchise will take the player best suited to complement Lauri Markkanen in the frontcourt.

Bamba had one part right in his interview session following an individual workout Friday afternoon: He knew to compliment Markkanen, who was a couple hundred feet away in the Advocate Center getting in a shooting session.
