At present, the NBA All-Star Weekend is still in full swing, and it has come to the final drama, that is, the All-Star Game.
And just as a group of star players gathered to perform, the Chicago Bulls management was not idle at all, and they were still actively recruiting, signing inside toughster Tristan Thompson.
Although Thompson has a lot of negative news on the sidelines, such as entanglement with the Kardashian family and constantly peach news, his personal ability is still very good. Previously playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Thompson was a rebounding master, and with the influence of James and his agent, Thompson won a large contract with the Cavaliers with an average of 8 points and 8 rebounds per game.
Since then, he has moved to a number of teams, and although Thompson's status in the team is declining, there are still many teams that want him. Today, Thompson was swapped by the Sacramento Kings to the Indiana Pacers before the season's midseason trade deadline, playing just one game before accepting a buyout.
There have been rumors that the Bulls want Thompson, but the Bulls manager doesn't admit it. Yesterday, the official news came out: the Bulls officially announced that they welcomed Thompson, which confirmed the matter.
Thompson, even though he is older, is a competitive interior player who can provide good defensive and rebounding protection. The Bulls are sorely short of inside players, as they only have a useful center in the penalty area, with DeRozan and Lavin both outside stars.
This season, the Bulls have performed brilliantly, ranking in the top four in the East, and are expected to stabilize the first place in the East, aiming to be this year's Eastern Conference championship and even the overall championship. With Thompson as an interior rotation, the Bulls are more confident and impact better results.
