Heading into the offseason, the Chicago Bulls set their sights on improvement. After getting sent home in the Play-In Tournament, Arturas Karnisovas made a commitment to pushing forward rather than rebuilding, and the additions of Jevon Carter and Torrey Craig helped them in that quest.
But on top of that, Chicago needs to continue improving their young core, as their future should be a priority, too. For the Bulls, Summer League provided a crucial opportunity to take a look at their young talent. Heading in, Dalen Terry was the most promising player, and a ton of eyes were on him, but he hasn’t lived up to expectations.
And according to Elias Schuster of Bleacher Nation, while Terry has been solid on the defensive side of the ball, he could be an “offensive liability” for Chicago.
“Meanwhile, Terry remains ice cold from the field after a 4-13 showing,” Schuster wrote. “I like what I’ve seen defensively and the playmaking is still there. But OOF he looks like a potential offensive liability right now.”
Through four Summer League games, Terry has averaged just 10.8 points while shooting 27.3% from the field and 22.2% from behind the three-point line.
With so much hype surrounding him heading into Summer League, Terry was the focal point of many Bulls fans. Unfortunately, his offensive game has been so rough it’s left some questioning whether or not he can play a real role in Chicago’s rotation moving forward.
Unless he develops a consistent jump shot or can at least score somewhat efficiently, Terry may not be able to earn playing time.
