Chicago Bulls’ Backcourt Becomes Taller, Pass-First, Hoiball Fit

All of the new guards on the Bulls depth chart right now are taller, pass-first point guards.

It’s a shift from the previous years for the Bulls where Kirk Hinrich, Nate Robinson, Aaron Brooks and even Derrick Rose (all scoring point guards) all took turns trying to score for the Bulls.

With the new crop of guards, the Bulls are moving in a new direction.

Here’s a look at the new blood, starting with the Bulls’ newest acquisition.

Denzel Valentine

Denzel Valentine was a consistent high-level performer in a team where he had a good player to dump the ball in the paint (Deyonta Davis) and one of the best three-point shooters in the country around (Bryn Forbes).
