Coach Billy Donovan’s starting lineup for the Bulls’ last preseason game Tuesday had minimal significance.
With Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan given the game off, and Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez of the Bucks sitting out, the game was essentially a glorified practice.
But there have been two constants in Donovan’s starting five throughout the preseason: Nikola Vucevic and Ayo Dosunmu.
Coming into the preseason, Donovan talked about his options at point guard in the absence of Lonzo Ball, but he has only used one of them — Dosunmu.
“Basically, yes,” Donovan said when asked if Dosunmu had won the starting spot.
