Pop quiz, hot shot. How do you truly know when your favorite basketball team has officially signed a big name free agent?
Is it seeing their names across the ESPN Bottomline? Perhaps it’s that press conference where they hold up their new jerseys?!?
Nope…it’s when they get that invite to hit the mound to throw out the ceremonial first pitch for the home team. Friday night, the Chicago Bulls made it official by sending Pau Gasol and Nikola Mirotic to the Southside to join the festivities before the Chicago White Sox took on the Houston Astros.
And, yeah…naturally there were pictures with the team’s mascot.
