Latest news and tidbits about some of our favorite Arizona Wildcats

Rawle Alkins and Lauri Markkanen team up on the Bulls and have fun during their summer

Rawle Alkins recently signed with the Chicago Bulls on a two-way contract. Since then he has been sharing his time between Chicago and Los Angeles. He took the time to help his new teammate Jabari Parker’s youth camp and hung out with teammates.

Alkins joins former Wildcat Lauri Markannen on the Bulls. The two have posted a few pics of themselves in and around the Bulls arena.

It’s sweet to see the teammates on the same pro team, just as Channing Frye and Richard Jefferson were on the Cavs, and now Allonzo Trier and Kadeem Allen will be on the New York Knicks.

Just yesterday, Rawle hosted a RAWLEERUNS workout asking for hoopers to join him. Little did they know that they would be treated to pick up games with musical artists Chris Brown and Trey Songz, two of Rawle’s favorite artists. Cassy Athena, who has taken some awesome photo’s of Alkins in the past, was in attendance and took this picture of King Rawle, Brown and Songz. Brown, sporting a Chicago Bulls t-shirt, also wore an Alkins Bulls jersey out on the town.

Lauri, on the other hand, was in China this week and visited with Yao Ming. The 7-foot Finnisher looks like a child next to this NBA Legendary Houston Rockets center and now President of the Chinese Basketball Association.
