Bulls rookie guard Coby White will play a ‘Microwave’ role ... for now

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Coby White doesn’t like to swim in self-praise.

Heck, not even wade in it.

Most NBA rookies don’t when dealing with the media, and more specifically, answering questions about their own early success.

So when the Bulls guard was asked how he’s been able to come off the bench and make an instant impact, of course there was a few seconds of hesitation as he chose his words carefully, just minutes after the Monday night win over Sacramento.

Teammate Tomas Satoransky, however, obviously wasn’t done dishing out assists.

“He’s the microwave,’’ Satoransky insisted, as he headed for the training room.
