Lauri Markkanen determined to "prove all the people wrong" and bounce back from down season

Playing with more energy and rebounding are two aspects of Lauri's game he hopes to improve next season.

As Lauri Markkanen prepares to enter his fourth season, he told media members on Monday afternoon that he's determined to have a bounce-back season under the direction of new head coach Billy Donovan.

A year ago Monday was a much happier time, and not only for Perrion Callandret, Milton Doyle and Justin Simon who were added to the Bulls 2019-20 training camp roster. No one had to wear a mask or stand a body length apart. High fives and hugs were welcomed.
