Give the NBA credit: They’re even trying to make the preseason interesting.
The Bulls announced their five preseason games on Tuesday, and yes, they don’t count in the big picture, but as far as intrigue? No one does it better than the Association.
Not only will the Bulls tip-off preseason by hosting Eastern Conference powerhouse Milwaukee, and former Bull Robin Lopez, but then two nights later on Oct. 9, welcome in Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans.
Williamson was the ultimate prize in the June draft, and watched his Summer League cut short in his first game when he suffered a minor knee injury.
