Tomas Satoransky could have taken a couple different directions when Jim Boylen told him he’d be moving into a reserve role in favor of rookie Coby White.
He could have sulked or pouted. He could have kicked and screamed. After all, he chose the Bulls in free agency to be a full-time starter for the first time in his NBA career.
Or, he could do what he did Tuesday night — act and play professionally. And then make a critical impact late in the Bulls’ 108-103 victory over the Cavaliers to match last season’s paltry victory total of 22 games.
