Chicago Bulls: Nate Robinson's contract becomes guaranteed - chicagotribune.com: "Nate Robinson never worried about whether his non-guaranteed, $1.15 million contract would become fully guaranteed, which happened Tuesday.

"I just play ball, man," Robinson said.

Robinson's guarantee date came nine days earlier than the league deadline for most contracts. The energetic guard is one of the few shot creators on the Bulls and is averaging 11 points in 21.2 minutes on 41.6 percent shooting.

Kirk Hinrich expressed optimism that he can return from a bone bruise in his left kneecap on Wednesday, but if he can't, Robinson will make his fifth start this season. He has played in all 29 games."
