The Bulls opened their season with an impressive road victory over the Miami Heat, but Zach LaVine’s absence due to left knee injury management left open-ended questions.
“Not having any aches and pains and being able to play without any limitations in my own mind is huge,” LaVine said following Friday’s practice at the Advocate Center. “Like, ‘OK, I can’t go left. Or I might not be able to dunk this play.’ You’re not supposed to be thinking that way when you’re playing basketball. And I was dealing with that a lot last year. I’m just happy I feel better.”
That’s not what LaVine said after he signed his five-year, $215 million maximum contract in July. That’s not what management said on media day. “I thought what happened was when we got bombarded last year with all these injuries, we were trying to piece it together. Part of it was we had never really been together. The whole team was new. I thought we came in with a really good plan. Nobody knew what we would go through.
