The Bulls got off to a slow start Friday against the Pistons, but Nikola Mirotić didn’t.

Mirotić has nine points in nine minutes, and showed some serious range in knocking down this 3 from the center-court logo.

Mirotić has been dynamite from behind the arc so far this season, going 8-13.

Detroit leads the Bulls 23-19 at the end of the first quarter.
