When the Bulls drafted Denzel Valentine last summer, I was confused.
I had absolutely no idea where he was going to fit in with the likes of Jimmy Butler, Doug McDermott and Dwyane Wade, and his stats reflected my concerns, as he only averaged 17 minutes per game during his rookie season. This season is completely different, however.
Butler and McDermott are both gone and the Bulls are in the middle of a total rebuild, and as it looks now, it won’t be the prettiest rebuild of all time.
But, that doesn’t mean Bulls players and fans won’t be able to find pros to offset the cons.
