DEERFIELD, Ill. -- Richard Hamilton started for the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers at United Center.

He scored 13 points and added six assists in the Bulls' 93-85 win.

"It's fun," Hamilton said before the game. "I think it's a great chance for me to get out there with the guys and play in a game situation. I haven't played in one since last season. It will be good to get out there with the guys and learn [with] each other and things like that."

The Bulls acquired Hamilton Wednesday after he was put on waivers by the Detroit Pistons, for whom he played the past nine seasons. Hamilton signed a two-year, $10 million contract, with a team option for a third season.
