Due to his poor performance in Chicago, the 28-year-old has fallen short of expectations, averaging just 5.5 points on 36.2 percent shooting from beyond the arc.
Craig, who started 60 games and shot 39 percent from three-point range for the Phoenix Suns last season, is comparable. Craig was given the chance to start this season instead of the struggling Patrick Williams, but he was unable to capitalize and was moved back to the bench.
Had I blown up the roster,In addition to Carter and Craig, the Bulls inked new contracts with Nikola Vucevic, Coby White, and Ayo Dosunmu. Due to the jam at the guard position, Dosunmu has been in and out of the rotation while White and Vucevic have been reliable starters.
Craig is comparable; during the previous season, he started 60 games and shot 39 percent from three-point range for the Phoenix Suns. This season, Craig was given the opportunity to start in place of the underperforming Patrick Williams, but he was unable to make an impact and was put back on the bench.
