Bulls guard Coby White catches the eye of coach Jim Boylen

Rookie Coby White just gets it.

That carries a lot of weight with Bulls coach Jim Boylen.

In one conversation White had with the media last week, he was discussing ball movement and insisted that the team’s energy changes when the ball is hopping around.

“I’ve told you before, [White] has a maturity, an intelligence for a younger guy,’’ Boylen said. “I think he listens, and his perception of what’s going on is really good. That’s a good example. There is energy when the ball moves. There’s an unselfishness, there’s a feeling when the ball’s popping.
