It worked for Miami, now can new staff member make Bulls a better 3-point shooting team? McGrawDHSports chicagobulls
The clock was about to strike midnight when the Bulls brain trust of Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley met with reporters following Thursday's NBA draft. One point where the conversation perked up, though, was when Eversley talked about a new hire. Chicago native Peter Patton is on board with the task of turning the Bulls into a better 3-point shooting team.
Patton was hired by Tom Thibodeau when he first took the Minnesota Timberwolves coaching job. For the past five years, Patton worked for the Dallas Mavericks. If this all sounds like the nucleus of last year's Bulls will be back, that's probably true. They'll have a chance to add some pieces in free agency.
"He can step in right now and probably defend on our level," Karnisovas said."He's young and very talented." The Bulls were also connected to 6-5 Turkish shooting guard Onuralp Bitim, possibly on a two-way deal. The 24-year-old averaged 17.7 points and shot 39% in the Turkish League last season. He spent time in the U.S. during his high school years, playing for Huntington Prep with Miles Bridges.
