‘Utility baseball player’ mentality working for Bulls’ Ryan Arcidiacono

Billy Donovan missed out on the Ryan Arcidiacono experience years earlier.

The Bulls coach is making sure that’s not happening a second time.

So while going 10 or 11 deep from game-to-game isn’t always ideal for any NBA coach, Arcidiacono makes it easier for Donovan.

The guard is always ready, no matter how long the layoff from his last in-game minutes, he’s always going to bring some much-needed toughness to this roster, and he’s always going to bring energy.

Can’t lose situation as far as Donovan was concerned.

“Whether it be practice or shootarounds or whenever he’s called upon you know exactly what you’re going to get,’’ Donovan said of Arcidiacono on Monday.
