For the Chicago Bulls to start the season 4-0, they needed an unsung hero. Tre Jones has filled that role. With Coby White sidelined to begin the year, head coach Billy Donovan needed someone he could trust to fill the hole in the starting lineup. He opted for Jones on opening night against the Detroit Pistons, and all the 25-year-old has done since is prove him right. The guard has averaged 12.5 points, 7.5 assists, and 3.5 rebounds over his first four games of the season. While que...

This also happened to be the last time the team started 4-0, which happens to be the Chicago Bulls’ cu...
