Ever since his injury against the Indiana Pacers in the middle of March, Coby White hasn’t been the same. The Chicago Bulls guard has been having an amazing season this year. He should be in the running to win the Most Improved Player award. But a hip issue that spawned from a Pascal Siakam block has sent him spiraling into a pit of struggles that he can’t quite find his way out of.
On Friday night, the Bulls lost to the Brooklyn Nets in brutal fashion. The Nets outscored the Bulls by 48 points from behind the three-point line as White continued to struggle with efficiency

“[Expletive], I don’t know,’’ White said . ‘‘Just trying to impact it any way I can, not try to force it. I’m just not making the shots I normally make right now.”
If the Bulls want to make any noise in the postseason, they need White to turn it around.
