Noa Essengue Proving He Already Has Vital Weapon In First Two Games

Noa Essengue is a project. That is a fact. The Chicago Bulls knew this when they drafted him. Everybody understood the 18-year-old from France had little professional polish. His shooting was highly inefficient, and his body is rail-thin. He’d need time to prepare himself for the rigors of the NBA. The first two games of the Summer League have confirmed this. Essengue has gone 6-of-17 from field goal range and 1-of-7 from behind the arc. Those shooting issues were no joke. He has a lot of work to do.
