" Rip Hamilton practiced with his new teammates for the third time Sunday, but whether he'll make his Bulls debut in the exhibition finale Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers is unknown.

Coach Tom Thibodeau said he'd likely make his decision Monday.

"Each day, he gets more and more comfortable," Thibodeau said. "He approaches it well. He comes in to work. He gets here early. He's studying hard. He's doing fine so far. Probably [Monday], we'll get another practice under his belt. He looked pretty comfortable today in the scrimmage. That will be the next step for him.""
