Thomas Gardner makes Bulls roster: Thomas Gardner is proof that opportunity can knock at any time. The 6-foot-5 shooting guard left Missouri a year ago, was not drafted and spent last season in Belgium. After playing well for the Bulls' summer-league squad, Gardner earned a training camp invite. Then, he inadvertently created some playing time for himself when starter Ben Gordon stepped on Gardner's foot in practice and suffered a sprained ankle. Before the exhibition finale, Gardner was told the Bulls planned to keep him on the roster at the start of the season, according to The Sports Xchange. (Updated 10/27/2007).

Fantasy Analysis
Gardner ended up starting four preseason games, averaged 7.8 points and shot 47 percent from three-point range. "(He has) good size, great athlete, he's proven he can make the three and he can defend one-on-one," head coach Scott Skiles said. "There's a lot there to like." There's not a lot to like for Fantasy purposes, however, as Gardner doesn't stand to see much time. Keep him off all Fantasy rosters. (Updated 10/27/2007).
