Bobby Portis Has Strong Outing Against Nets
7 years agoChicago Bulls power forward Bobby Portis earned the start for the Bulls against Brooklyn on Saturday with Lauri Markkanen (rest) out. Portis responded by scoring 18 points on 8-for-15 shooting. He grabbed eight rebounds as well. Portis hasn't had the best stretch lately -- coming into this game, he was averaging just 5.5 rebounds and 11.8 points over his past four games, a drop in both categories from his season averages -- but he could do well Monday in a rematch of these teams as Brooklyn allows the most rebounds of any team in the league.
