Coby White Bounces Back in Style as Bulls Take Down Clippers Behind 27-Point Outburst
At the United Center on Tuesday night, a packed crowd witnessed Coby White's best performance of the season, as he led the Chicago Bulls to a convincing 138-110 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. The Bulls' guard, who had been sidelined for multiple calf injuries earlier in the year, showed flashes of his former self, putting up a game-high 27 points in the process.
White's shooting display was nothing short of spectacular, as he finished with a season-high six three-pointers from beyond the arc, converting at an impressive 60% rate. The Bulls' bench and supporting cast were equally impressive, as Matas Buzelis added 21 points and Nikola Vucevic chipped in 19.
The Clippers, without their All-Star forward Kawhi Leonard, struggled to keep pace with the Bulls, who were led by a rejuvenated Coby White. The Bulls' guard has been working hard on his shot preparation during his recent absence from the lineup, and it showed on Tuesday night. White's increased confidence is evident in his performance, as he was able to stay focused and composed under pressure.
"We're all happy for him because it's been a long road back," said coach Billy Donovan. "He missed an entire training camp and part of the summer, so it's hard for him to get back into shape. But he's working on his shot prep and watching film from last season to find differences in his shot selection."
White's performance has sparked renewed speculation about his future with the Bulls, who are likely to make some decisions regarding their most attractive trade piece before the trade deadline. The 27-point outburst will only fuel discussions about White's potential value on the market.
For now, however, Coby White and the Bulls will be focusing on the next game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday. With games against the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat coming up, the stakes are high for the Bulls' young guard to continue his impressive form.
In related news, the presence of Bears quarterback Caleb Williams and Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong in the stands added an extra layer of excitement to the game, as fans eagerly watched their favorite players take on a different sport for a night.
