The Bulls are almost back to full health now that guard Zach LaVine and center Nikola Vucevic have returned, with both contributing off the bench in Friday night’s win over the Hornets.
Although the Bulls lost their previous two games on the road against the Knicks and 76ers, they went 10-7 in the 17 games that LaVine missed with a foot issue. They also moved the ball better and played with more purpose in that span, ranking fifth in the NBA with 298.1 passes per game, first in secondary assists (4.7) and 13th in potential assists (46.4).
