Vucevic hoping Bulls core stays intact

The Chicago Bulls have flirted with being in (and out) of the Play-In Tournament picture all season. After Tuesday’s 104-89 road loss to Memphis, Chicago fell to 27-28 as its disappointing season rolls on. Following the game, Bulls center Nikola Vucevic told Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times that he wants the team’s core of himself, Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan to stay put. “There are a lot of ways we do fit together. Just about us building that chemistry. Plus, all three of us — Zach [LaVine], DeMar [DeRozan] and myself — are at a point in our career where we do want to win, get there. When you put all that together, it makes a lot of sense to give us the shot and continue to work on it. When the three of us take that lead and play the way we need to play, we could be a good team.”
