Disappointing. Averaging 17/11 in his second season after averaging 20/12 last year in the G League

Chicago is clearly rebuilding. They’ve shipped out their two best players Derozan and Lavine in the last 2 seasons and didn’t get any instant impact players back. They’re not trying to win so I’m sure Vucevic is on the trade block this summer too. If so, why not throw some low-impact minutes to your G League star C and see what he can do?

Hopefully Adama gets healthy soon and someone else picks him up

Knicks need a big man sign him now.
I've been saying for two years the Knicks should've traded for him. The Bulls were wasting him. The Knicks have Precious Ochuwa and Sanogo is better.

Can anyone explain why the Bulls would do this? Didn't this dude just make the NBA G-League All-Star game?

He's hurt. 2 ways are in a sense just extra roster spot flexibility for NBA teams. If a guy wasn't picked in the first round, the team likely isn't using the two way for development, rather for spot call ups and to have extra roster spots. If he's hurt, he and the roster spot are not useful for that. He'll be out for at least half the remaining season.

Kid destroys the g-league. This is odd.

Lakers should sign him.
Not sure about that. The Lakers want a rim runner for Alley-oop dunks. That isn't Adama's game. Maybe the Celtics could use him.

Hope he can catch on somewhere out its tough for an undersized center to catch on in the league

Cam's been out for a good portion of the year, but Memphis isn't waiving him -- likely b/c they value him and see a future in the organization beyond this season. The Bulls don't value Sanogo and that's been evident from early on.

And to me, Sanogo is a Billy Donovan type player - don't know what happened there.
He will catch on to another NBA squad or he could go to Europe and earn a boatload of money.
Too bad he wasn't a few inches taller - or shorter.
A tweener but a very talented one

I just wished Sanogo had some more playing time to show that he needs some minutes or that he's not ready.

He's been productive in his really small sample size. And he's great in the G league. Show me that he doesn't deserve NBA minutes, and that nearly zero NBA playing time in 18 months is what he deserves.

San Antonio should invite him to stop by and see if he might be a fit for them.

He isn’t really undersized because of his reach. I’ve yet to see anyone stop him on offense and he’s adequate on defense at a minimum. He definitely appears to be a player that is a +/- slam dunk.
