Bulls return to practice, LaVine get instructions from Beverley; 'He's going to be great for all of us.' McGrawDHSports chicagobulls
During his first practice with the Bulls on Wednesday, Patrick Beverley jumped right into making adjustments, starting with Zach LaVine.
So the Bulls snapped up the Chicago native once they missed out on getting his former Lakers teammate, Russell Westbrook. When describing Beverley, LaVine brought up the name of a former Bulls teammate. "Maybe a lot of you guys don't know, but I was trying to get Pat here at least a year or two ago," LaVine said."Been texting him. We used to be at the same agency. He's somebody you hate to play against but love as a teammate."
Beverley also goes back a long way with DeMar DeRozan. An interesting moment from last season was when Beverley and the Timberwolves visited the United Center on Feb. 11. It was right in the middle of DeRozan's NBA-record streak of eight straight games of at least 35 points and 50% shooting.
Beverley also heaped praise on Bulls coach Billy Donovan. Both sides agreed Donovan did not try to recruit Beverley out of high school, but they played against each other for two years in the SEC when Donovan coached at Florida and Beverley played at Arkansas. During Beverley's second season with the Razorbacks, he played for former Donovan assistant John Pelphrey.
