Nikola Vucevic heard the friendly jab from across the locker room.
The Bulls big man was putting his socks on while teammate Zach LaVine was breaking down the game with the media, with the guard insisting even Vucevic was defending the rim “even though he doesn’t jump real high.’’
“Thanks Zach!’’ Vucevic responded.
Yet another feel-good moment to come out of Sunday’s improbable 23-point, first-half comeback win over a Western Conference powerhouse Memphis team.
