Cristiano Felicio wins an unintentional troll award this year

Cristiano Felicio has come into his own this year. He has shown growth from last year and could be a solid contributor off of the bench for the Bulls for the future. He hasn’t had very many memorable shots or moments this season, but he will be remembered for one thing: being the triple-double thief.

Earlier in the season, the Bulls were playing the Cavaliers in late February. Jimmy Butler had a triple-double that game, and his teammate, Dwyane Wade, was one rebound away from his triple-double – until Felicio struck.

Felicio went out of his way to jump over Wade to try to get the rebound. Wade had it in his hands, it was celebration time. Then Felicio pulled it out and ruined Wade’s chances.

Honestly, Felicio had no clue that Wade was one rebound away from his triple-double, and he even tweeted after the game that he had no clue.

While it was sad to see Wade leave the court without his triple-double, it was funny to watch Felicio strip it away from Wade’s hands.

The unintentional troll is always one to be recognized. Don’t worry, Felicio, I got you covered.
