When Chicago Bulls coach Billy Donovan benched Patrick Williams on Monday, the decision came as a surprise — not because it was unwarranted but because it was so long overdue. This should have happened weeks ago.

Even amid another losing season for the Chicago Bulls, the wing often fades out of focus by the final buzzer. Williams often struggles to score in double digits, gets outrebounded by guards, never leads the team in any meaningful statistic. Night in and night out, his minutes on the court only stir up increasingly frantic questions.
