Bulls starting five remains flawed, but could there be fix on the way?

It didn’t take very long for Billy Donovan to take the drama out of naming a starting lineup.

Not that it came as a real surprise.

The expectation when camp started was the Bulls coach would lean on a three-guard lineup of Zach LaVine, Coby White and Josh Giddey, with Patrick Williams starting as the lone true forward and Nikola Vucevic in the middle. Sure enough, that was the starting five in Cleveland on Tuesday, and the one used in most practice scrimmages once Giddey got over his injured ankle.
