Extra on this storyline
With 5:56 left within the fourth quarter towards the Pistons on Wednesday, Detroit rookie Jaden Ivey beat Patrick Beverley off the dribble, and was headed for the rim with the blow-by. Beverley was relying on Nikola Vucevic to peel off his man and assist with some rim safety, however that didn’t occur when it appeared that Vucevic was not being attentive to the ball. Beverley started getting on Vucevic about how the center should have played it, and the two had words, as veteran DeMar DeRozan had to step in and play peacemaker. -via Chicago Sun-Times / March 2, 2023
In line with a supply near the state of affairs, Vucevic has not been thrilled with among the latest finger pointing happening, and this wasn’t the primary time he was sad with the tone through which he – and different teammates – have been spoken to. While the source said it wasn’t just a “Beverley-Vooch thing,’’ it does put in question the exact leadership hierarchy with this roster. Not the first time that’s been questioned this season, either. -via Chicago Sun-Times / March 2, 2023
He advised the Solar-Instances lately that he was not approached about an extension earlier than the season as a result of the entrance workplace wished to “see how this all works out,’’ however perhaps it’s Vucevic that’s additionally being attentive to how that is figuring out, and does he even need to be part of it? By all accounts, he and his family like Chicago, and Vucevic isn’t someone who wants to jump around from team to team, but he also knows there aren’t a lot of bigs in the league that can fall out of bed and average 17.7 points and 11.3 rebounds, whereas taking pictures slightly below 35% from three-point vary as a 3rd choice on this Bulls offense. -via Chicago Sun-Times / March 2, 2023
KC Johnson: The Bulls and Goran Dragic parting ways was a mutual decision, per sources, and has been in works since the addition of Patrick Beverley. This allows Dragic the chance to sign with another team and be playoff-eligible. Bulls now have an open roster spot, also also close to tax. -via Twitter @KCJHoop / February 28, 2023
