O.J. Mayo was the focus of so many trade rumors last month, he figured he would get a new address.
And one in Chicago would have been fine with him.
“It would have been cool,” Mayo said before his Grizzlies took on the Bulls at the United Center. “I stay here in the offseason and work out with Tim Grover. But I’m happy (with the Grizzlies).”
The Bulls and Grizzlies could not agree to terms before the Feb. 24 trade deadline so the Bulls kept their roster intact, and Mayo continued in his role with Memphis.
“Scoring off the bench,” he called it.The 6-foot-4 guard entered Friday’s game having drained four of his last five 3-pointers.
“A big-time scorer,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said.
