Two current rostered players for the Chicago Bulls competed for their respective countries in this year’s edition of the FIBA World Cup. Those two players from the Bulls in the FIBA World Cup were the Czech combo guard Tomas Satoransky and Brazilian forward Cristiano Felicio. Both the Czech Republic and Brazil did pretty well, and that could be partly thanks to the Bulls players competing in China.
The Czech Republic finished up one spot higher than the United States, at No. 6. Now that might be more of a knock on Team USA than it was success for the Czech Republic.
