Rip Hamilton will start at shooting guard for the Chicago Bulls tonight against the Indiana Pacers at the United Center.
“It’s fun,” Hamilton said. “I think it’s a great chance for me to get out there with the guys and play in a game situation. I haven’t played in one since last season. It will be good to get out there with the guys and learn [with] each other and things like that.”
It’s clear the former Piston sharpshooter gives the Bulls an added dimension on offense.
“It gives us a catch and shoot game,” coach Tom Thibodeau said. “It gives us size at his position and experience. He knows how to read defenses. He’s seen just about every defense there is and he knows where the holes are, so hopefully we can take advantage of that. It’s how he fits into the team. He has to do his part.”
