Bulls lose to Knicks, 113-105

The Bulls finally got the big, 6-8 kid from St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, and he didn't disappoint with 22 points and seven rebounds in his Bulls debut Monday, though it was a 113-105 loss to the New York Knicks.

That's right, the Bulls finally got JaKarr Sampson on the floor.

"Just trying to fit in," said the versatile forward who attended LeBron James' high school. "I didn't want to do too much early. Just try to feel the game out. My teammates got me the ball in the right position, slashing. Just coming in with the mindset I'm going to be aggressive and play my game, but also fit into the team concept.
