There have been a few good moments.
Marko Simonovic’s 27-point, 13-rebound showcase, and rookie Dalen Terry putting up 14 points and five rebounds in a comeback victory against the Raptors. Then there has been Terry’s overall in-your-face demeanor on the court.
So, yes, there have been some nice stories during this Summer League for the Bulls.
But help?
Actual on-court, crunch-time help in a big late-March Eastern Conference showdown?
That likely won’t be coming from the Summer League roster.
And, frankly, Zach LaVine is fine with that.
When LaVine sat down with executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley to discuss the future and why he should stay a Bull for $215 million over the next five years, the two-time All-Star knew the current core would be leaned on to carry the load.
