NBA
Quotable:
"My strengths: I feel like I can shoot the ball on any team. I feel like I can extend the defense and open up for teams inside, as well. ... And just my positive energy out there. I feel like I can help a team out.”
Fit for the Bulls:
The Bulls figure to be set at the starting shooting guard spot, what with many expecting Jimmy Butler to return with a big payday in tow. But teams wouldn't be drafting Harvey to fill an immediate need in the starting lineup any way. If the Bulls are looking for some more shooting off the bench and some depth at guard — Mike Dunleavy and Aaron Brooks could both potentially be gone — then perhaps someone like Harvey could be worth a second-round pick.
