Probably the most difficult vote of the season...

I'll go...

Vest - Cole Anthony
Cummerbund - Wendell Carter Jr.
Mittens - Markelle Fultz

Feels like all three spots have to go to bench guys even though Paolo hit some clutch middys late.

Really hard

Paolo: outplayed Randle and got some clutch buckets
Chuma: played great defense and offense (supportive role but still)
Cole: got cooked by his man but gave us some clutch buckets

Chuma. Don’t survive the first half without him.

Cole
Chuma
Paolo

Honestly, really hard. Not sure about any of them besides Cole being somewhere in the top 3 but there are like 5-6 deserving people.

I have been the farthest from a Chuma fan but we don’t win this game without him and a few clutch shots he made. Especially his last 3 in the 4th

I gave it to Paolo for just being the coolest down the stretch...absolutely a big time player in the big moments.

also Kudos to WCJ, Fultz, and Chuma showing the league they are capable of contributing- in time for the Trade Season.

Fultz gets the vest for his work down the wire and being unlikely hero.

Cole cummerbund for scoring down the stretch.

Mittens to Goga for his defense down the stretch.

V- Chumba played good D and hit from the outside
C- PB he's our go to guy and played some D
M- Fultz came in with that crazy drunk to rally up the run and help control the pace

Never thought I’d do it, but I got Chuma for the vest. Team hit 8 3’s all game and he accounted for half of them. Just a solid shooting night when we desperately needed it and I think he played good D.

Paolo gets cummerbund - hit two big middies and played solid D on Randle I thought

Mittens to Kelle for his presence in the final minutes and assisting in those last few much needed buckets

Always tough to vote in a win-by-committee game. I cannot vote for Banchero as he was not efficient. And Okeke, whereas not an important part of the game, was Orlando's most efficient player. So I have:

Okeke - vest
Banchero - cummerbund (stats matter; even inefficient stats).
Carter - mittens (again, efficiency over Anthony).

But lots of lollypops: Bitadze for board work, Isaac, for quality minutes, however limited, Fultz - ditto, Ingles, ditto, and Anthony for volume scoring.

Cole

In reality my vote should probably be Paolo Paolo Paolo.

I voted for WCJ becouse he played to the level of his talent. He would be so good if he was more confident. Propably what Bulls fans said to themselves.

Banchero becouse he was also solid on d

Chuma becouse without his 3s we would be swept long before reserves came.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

I said it before. A healthy WCJ will quickly restore his value. He looks to not just be in good health again, but his overall physical fitness for the game is returning.
