Terry Taylor, a former forward for the Indiana Pacers, is joining the Chicago Bulls.Terry Taylor, a former forward with the Indiana Pacers, signed last week against the Chicago Bulls. The first two seasons of Taylor’s 23-year-old career were spent with the Pacers.
After joining the team on a two-way contract, he signed a two-year contract with the G-League team. He led the blue-gold team with an average of 6.6 points and 3.6 rebounds per game in 59 games.
His exceptional offensive shooting abilities have always been the reason he was recruited by the NBA. For his size, Taylor is a powerhouse on the glass.In order to make room for a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, the Pacers released the rookie forward in February.
Taylor was let go by Indiana (along with Goga Bitadze) in order to make room on the roster for Jordan Nwora and George Hill. I was taken aback. I realize that this is a business at the end of the day. Taylor stated he was quitting, so just take it on the chin and go on.
Shortly after he permitted another player to do so, the Chicago Bulls signed him to a two-way contract. It was obvious they wanted Taylor. Last season, he averaged 4.0 points and 1.6 rebounds per game while playing in five games for Chicago.
Bulls head coach Billy Donovan described the forward as a man who, despite his diminutive stature, is a truly exceptional jumper for his size.This summer, Taylor became a free agent, but this week, he decided to go back to Chicago.
This is a multi-year agreement.Although the deal is not definite, Taylor will receive $350,000 if he remains on the roster on opening night, according to Keith Smith of Spotrac. On the Bulls list, he placed last and in 15th place.
