DETROIT – Calling Wednesday’s game with the Pistons embarrassing would be an understatement.
Humiliating, shameful, mortifying … getting warmer.
“The way we lost just can’t happen,” Bulls guard Kevin Huerter described afterward.
No, it can’t, but it did, as the Pistons were without regular starters Tobias Harris, Jalen Duren, Ausar Thompson, and Cade Cunningham – who just so happened to be fresh off a triple-double in which he scored 46 points on 45 shots, while grabbing 12 rebounds and handing out 11 assists – and still beat the Bulls 124-113.
The JV didn’t just beat the varsity, they humbled them.
