Shengelia's Debut did not Happen

Georgian basketball player Tornike Shengelia visited Cleveland and he also was on the list of “Cavaliers”, however his debut in the lines of “Chicago Bulls” did not happen.

Shengelia joined “Bulls” 2 days ago and the head coach of this team Tom Tibod has not allowed the Georgian go on the arena, it was not greatly surprising. The main thing is that the coach trust the Georgian forward to future meetings.

As for the last match, it won “Bulls” 98:87 and passed to the positive balance in the tournament schedule (21 wins, 20 losses). Now the team of the Georgian is in the second place in the Central Division and in the 5th place in the whole Eastern Conference and has a great chance of going through the play-off.

“Chicago” has its next meeting on January 25 against “Los Angeles Clippers”.

Finally, “Bucks” of Zaza Pachulia stopped the unsuccessful series. “Milwaukee” hosted “Detroit Pistons” at “Harry Bradley Center” and won 104:101.

Besides the Georgian center, O J Mayo, Garry Neal, Larry Sunders, Nate Walters and Carlos Delfino have not played in this match due to various reasons, and because of this their success was unexpected.

This was only the 8th victory after 33 losses for “Milwaukee Bucks” and they still remain as outsiders. “Bucks” will have another match on January 25 against “Cleveland”.
