'It’s tough sitting on the bench with a suit on': Terrance Ferguson gives Thunder a spark in return

Terrance Ferguson returned to the starting lineup Monday night after missing the previous five games with right hip soreness.

Ferguson logged 29 minutes and drew the assignment of defending Bulls guard Zach LaVine.

Ferguson shot 4-of-7, with all attempts coming from 3-point range. He’s shooting 37.5 percent from three this season.

Abdel Nader, who started five games in Ferguson’s place, played 15 minutes off the bench. Luguentz Dort did not play.

Nader averaged 10.
