Bobby Portis, LaVine’s teammate with the Bulls, summed it up. “We’d rather play booray than go out to the club,” he said. “It really makes you lock in and think. We play that game probably three, four times a week. We play it on the road, play at homes, we’ll sit for four, five, six hours and play it.” “It gets heated, because there’s money on the line,” he added. “If you get booed, it’s like a gut punch.”

When the Chicago Bulls drafted Bobby Portis in 2015, an old tweet resurfaced in which he was critical of new teammates Derrick Rose and Pau Gasol. Portis huddled with his agents immediately after the draft, according to Rachel Stein, who runs public relations for Priority Sports, and they quickly came up with a response: a humble apology in which the young player asked his new teammates what kind of doughnuts they preferred. Then he brought doughnuts to his introductory news conference, “and a bad situation quickly became a running joke,” Stein recalled.
