Bulls fans shouldn't get their hopes up on rookie Noa Essengue

The discourse surrounding Noa Essengue is all over the place. From a horrendous opening summer league performance to landing on the opposite end of one of the most embarrassing poster dunks in recent memory, Essengue's abbreviated summer league was far from renowned.

Nevertheless, Essengue rebounded quite nicely from his abysmal contest against the Toronto Raptors. He scored 12 points and grabbed 10 rebounds against the Sacramento Kings in the Bulls' second game. Then, he dropped 21 points, including a 3-of-8 mark from downtown in a 114-105 win versus the Indiana Pacers.

Unfortunately, the 18-year-old rookie didn't see the floor again.
