Coby White was the starting point guard in Friday’s preseason opener for the Bulls.
He’s just not officially the starting point guard with the regular season beginning in just over 10 days. Not yet, as new coach Billy Donovan reminded everyone of before the game.
Call that carrot the second-year player has to chase or maybe Donovan is still unsure. Either way, expect it to drag out through these three remaining preseason games until a decision has to be made.
“As a point guard, it’s not always going to be about how well he’s playing but how well the group is playing,’’ Donovan said of the decision process he will take with that spot the next week.
