Marquis Teague biding his time on bench
Marquis Teague - G - Chicago Bulls
Jan. 24, 2013 - 8:15 AM ET

Marquis Teague expressed an understanding at his role in the Bulls rotation.

"You have to be patient," Teague said. "I'm 19. I'm trying to grow as a player and wait for my turn. Playing a lot of minutes in college and not getting to play as much is something I never experienced. But you have to fight through it." Teague's playing time will become even more nonexistent when Derrick Rose returns, so at least the rookie has the right attitude.
