Conceptually, the idea of Giddey as a big hub style guard kind of works as long you insulate him with a bunch of athletes and shooters on the wings. The Bulls legitimately do not employ a SF and are maybe the least athletic and worst shooting team in the league

The three times Summer League means something
1) when a rookie dominates
2) when a 2nd year guy dominates
3) when a 3rd year guy does not domimate
Summer League doesn't mean anything except when Jordan Miller drops 30 while the rest of his team is 11-42 from the field.
