MIAMI – Kris Dunn has bought in.
The Bulls guard insisted he had in the preseason, but talking it and walking it are two very different things. Especially for a guy that the organization had feared was all but checked out following his exit meeting last April.
That’s when the front office informed Dunn that point guards would be brought in to compete for his starting job over the summer, as the idea of him still being considered part of the rebuild core was all but dead.
But there he was on Sunday, doing whatever role has been asked of him, and actually doing so at a high level.
