Bulls vs. Cavaliers preseason preview: How to watch, start time

The Bulls open up their preseason schedule tonight against the Cavs.

The Chicago Bulls kick off their preseason schedule on Tuesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, and if you were curious as to where to watch, you’re in the right place. The Bulls will look to continue building on the team chemistry from training camp as they acclimate newcomers Lonzo Ball and DeMar DeRozan.

Not sure how much time the likes of Zach LaVine will see tonight but it will be important to see players like Alex Caruso, Ayo Dosunmu, and Alize Johnson get plenty of minutes in their Bulls debut. Look for Alize Johnson to potentially get the start tonight with Patrick Williams out and Derrick Jones Jr. nursing a sprained left ankle.
