SEPTEMBER 18: The Bulls have officially signed Sampson, according to RealGM’s transactions log.
SEPTEMBER 14: The Bulls will fill their final roster spot heading into training camp by signing JaKarr Sampson, tweets Darnell Mayberry of The Athletic.
Sampson is a three-year veteran who has spent time with three NBA teams. He played 22 games for the Kings last season, averaging 4.7 points and 3.5 rebounds per night. Sampson started his career with the Sixers, then joined the Nuggets after being waived in 2016.
The addition of Sampson comes on the heels of a reported deal with Kaiser Gates, a rookie out of Xavier.
Not sure what this guy’s problem is. He seems to play well when he gets minuets. Defence is solid limited on offense, but overall a decent player.
Sampson could excel if given a chance to play. Maybe somewhere like Cleveland.
I agree, I’ve always thought, at the very least, he could be a solid bench player on a competitive team. Hopefully he’s able to shine in training camp, and I actually wouldn’t be all that suprised if he’s able to carve himself out a role either in Chicago or elsewhere…
Good luck Sampson, and as always GO BULLS!! lol…
Nah. He’s a 3 and d player without the 3
