Biggest Disappointment: Tony Snell

The one factor that has haunted Tony Snell during his first two years with the Bulls is his inability to string together solid performances. Unfortunately for both parties, that trend continued in 2015-16 as well.

Sure, Snell definitely had some moments when he shined. One such occurrence took place in a December game against the Toronto Raptors.

In that contest, he scored 22 points on 8-for-14 shooting and pulled down seven boards. Over the next three games, however, he scored a combined total of just 19 points.

Another instance in which Snell played well was a mid-January contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. In that game, he scored 17 points on 7-for-11 shooting from the field and grabbed seven rebounds.

During the following eight games, though, he produced a total of 18 points.

His inconsistent play became so glaring that he lost his spot in the rotation to the likes of Doug McDermott, Nikola Mirotic and even Justin Holiday, whom the Bulls acquired in late February as part of the Kirk Hinrich trade.

Snell does have the ability to play well, but he has yet to show that he can do so on a consistent basis. And unless he proves that he can go out and consistently produce, next season could be his last in the Windy City.
