During his rookie season, former Hall-of-Fame Chicago Bulls forward Scottie Pippen apparently underwent a back injury that would wind up having a career-defining impact. This shows that each and every player in Bulls franchise history that wound up finding his way to the Hall-of-Fame had true trials and tribulations to fight through.
The seven-time All-Star, seven-time All-NBA honoree, 1994 All-Star Game MVP, and 10-time All-Defensive Team selection, Pippen is one of the legendary players to ever suit up for the Bulls. But it didn’t all come easy to Pippen. His rookie season didn’t see him start in a single game, and post a player efficiency rating of 12.
