ATLANTA – It was the best personal trainer Coby White could visit on Sunday.
Better yet? Free of charge.
The Hawks entered the afternoon tilt the fifth-ranked team in pace, while White’s own Bulls team was second in that category.
What that meant for White? Tie up the laces tight and get ready to run – defense optional. Just what he needed.
The 152-150 win in Atlanta still wasn’t vintage White. At least not the White that post-All-Star break last year finished averaging 24.5 points per game, while shooting 49.4% from the field in 26 regular-season games, but it was progress.
