The Chicago Bulls have signed 28-year old guard John Lucas.  Lucas played in 2 games (0 starts) earlier this year for the Bulls and he averaged 5.0 minutes, 1.0 point and 0.5 assists per game.  He has now played in 62 games (0 starts) in his first three years with in the NBA and he is averaging 8.1  minutes, 3.0 points, 0.7 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game.  Lucas is only shooting 39.5% from the  floor and 24.6% from three point range so far in his career.  Don’t expect Lucas to play much unless the Bulls suffer a big rash of injuries at guard.

The Chicago Bulls have signed 31-year old guard Jannero Pargo.  Pargo played in 63 games (5 starts) for the Bulls last season and he averaged 13.1 minutes, 5.5 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.  But, he only shot 34.6% from the floor and 27.5% from three point range so don’t expect any miracles out of him.  Pargo has now played in 378 games (18 starts) in his NBA career and he is averaging 15.8 minutes, 6.6 points, 1.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game.  Pargo will likely be sitting near the end of the bench, but he could give the Bulls a few solid minutes the rest of this year.
