Oso Ighodaro started at center in the Phoenix Suns’ 105-103 loss Thursday to the Chicago Bulls (26-37) and was clearly favored for his on-court presence over rookie Khaman Maluach.
The second-year pro out of Marquette more than doubled the No. 10 pick’s minutes in the opening half (17 to seven) and showed his comfortability by comparison in every facet, with only one turnover to Maluach’s four in the game, as one example.
Thursday was the first matchup with Ighodaro and Maluach really getting true run at the five position after the team announced Mark Williams will be re-evaluated for a left foot stress reaction in two to three weeks.
With the Suns (35-27) shooting below 40%, how each player could operate in the rotation was even more under the scope.
Ighodaro posted a +4 plus/minus in 36 minutes with 10 points and nine rebounds, and an accompanying four assists, steal and block. Maluach made his lone shot attempt and missed two free-throw attempts in his 12 minutes off the bench. The team was a -5 with him on the floor.
