Coming off a 95-86 preseason victory over the Indiana Pacers Friday, the Chicago Bulls may be ready to unleash their latest acquisition, Richard Hamilton.

Hamilton sat out Friday as Ronnie Brewer took center stage and started at shooting guard but according to the Chicago Tribune he may make his Chicago debut Tuesday vs. the Pacers at the United Center.

He practiced with the Bulls for the first time Thursday and took part in Friday morning's shootaround.

"Each day he'll do a little more," coach Tom Thibodeau told the Tribune. "But one day and a shootaround, I didn't feel comfortable with it."

Thiboduea did hint that it wouldn't be long before Hamilton found his groove with the Bulls, telling the Tribune, "He'll get up to speed pretty quickly. Friday, even with just one day of practice, he seemed a lot more comfortable. So I'm confident he'll move along."

The Bulls will play their second preseason game, hosting the Pacers at the United Center. You can catch the game live on Comcast SportsNet beginning with Bulls Pregame Live at 6:30 p.m.

What do you expect from Hamilton? Do you think he'll mesh well with the Bulls?
