Bill Wennington, B.J. Armstrong, Bill Cartwright, and Randy Brown spoke to Sam Smith about what they remembered most about playing with 2021 Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Toni Kukoc.
Bill Wennington was playing for Bologna at the time, but what he witnessed was hardly a bunch of baloney.
The Bulls had selected Croatian star Toni Kukoc with a second-round pick in the 1990 NBA draft. So what was the big deal? By then the Bulls already had won an NBA title. But Wennington, perhaps, was one of the first who saw the dynasty materializing by adding some European flavoring.
