Summer Teague

Scott Skiles argued NBA players only get better in the off season when they have sufficient time to improve their skills.  

NBA Bulls Summer League

Other notables: Marquis Teague, Bulls. Derrick Rose’s backup had his best scoring game yet, finishing with 25 points on 7-for-14 shooting, hitting all three 3-point attempts.

Yes.  2013 summer league is where 29th pick Marquis Teague needs to shine.  He was a one year college player selected by Chicago for his future value. One would expect him to play very well against any rookie guard selected outside of the lottery (i.e. Damien Lillard) and with Developmental League players. 

Teague played like a 29th pick so what's Teague's "upside?" Rookie of the year PG Damian Lillard is 23 and had four years at Webber State to develop his "game".  Teague is 20 and would be a Junior when the NBA starts this fall.

A success metric for 2013 would be appearing in a super majority of the Bulls games (55) while getting his ave. minutes played in double digits (15+).  He'd have to work into part of the extended player rotation.  That also means Teague should shoot over .420 this year and over .330 behind the 3pt line. As a PG under Thibs, he will need a good asst. to turn over ratio.   Hinrich was 3.1 which put him 5th in the NBA.  Bulls Marco Belinelli was a poor, bottom 10 percentile 1.8 and Jeff, his brother, 2.5.

Teague should see playing time against other rotational players and therefore have an asst to turn over ratio above 2.25.  FG% .420 and 3PT% .330.
