Nikola Vucevic Dominates The Glass Versus Celtics
2 years agoChicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic had a huge performance on the glass against Boston on Monday, grabbing 23 rebounds in a 120-102 win. The Celtics had Al Horford back on the court, but they still struggled to get any work done on the glass, with Vucevic picking up 10 board on the offensive end alone. He completed the night with a double-double, scoring 18 points on 7-for-19 shooting, and also handed out five assists with two turnovers in 31 minutes. Vucevic has had an inconsistent start to the season, as he's struggled to shoot efficiently and entered Monday's action after having posted just 12 rebounds in total across his previous two outings. The next matchup against the Myler Turner-less Pacers should help Vucevic to find some form. Centers are shooting nearly 60 percent from the field against Indiana and they are also allowing the fourth-most rebounds to the position.
