3 steps for the Chicago Bulls this season: 1. Finish in the bottom 4 to 10 teams & hopefully win the lottery. 2. Develop our young talent & hope to see players breakout. 3. Make trades to set us up for future seasons. That's it. Stop chasing mediocrity & build for the future.

Bulls Rotation Starters G: Josh Giddey G: Norman Powell F: Matas Buzelis F: Caleb Wilson C: Nic Claxton Key Bench G: Tre Jones G: Buddy Hield F: Leonard Miller C: Jalen Smith Bench G: Isaac Okoro G: Dailyn Swain F: Noa Essengue C: Zach Collins Bench Warmer F: Patrick Williams

Should the Chicago Bulls give Leonard Miller an extension now (as soon as possible) or wait until the 2027 offseason? He'll be an unrestricted free agent this 2027 offseason but the Bulls can offer an extension at any point before the 2027 offseason kicks in.

Dailyn Swain had the worst rookie Summer League performance in Chicago Bulls history. No way he can be that bad right? Had a .636% TS in college. It wasn't just Bulls who wanted Swain. You can clearly see Thunder fans overwhelmingly wanted him at #17: reddit.com/r/Thunder/comment…

Caleb Wilson 19 Points 8/17 FG 3/8 3PT 8 Rebounds 5 Blocks 2 Steals Slow start for him, but he found his rhythm later. I wouldn't worry about his free throws since he shot well in college. This might be the worst Bulls Summer League team ever if Caleb Wilson wasn't out there.

Comparison #4 Picks: Patrick Williams vs Caleb Wilson Caleb - Full energy - Elite athlete - High motor - Confident - D versatility - Good feel for the game - Transition weapon - Solid mid range - Huge ceiling Pat somehow managed to be the opposite of everything on Calebs list.

Chicago Bulls Noa Essengue grew exactly 2 inches according to the NBA official summer league measurements. Was listed as 6'9 last summer league. Now listed as 6'11. You can verify here: nba.com/summer-league/2025/l…

Chicago Bulls gameplan seems to be: 1. Sign players to short term 1+1 deals 2. Take trade offers at the 2027 trade deadline 3. Reload the roster again during 2027 free agency with potentially $76M–$88M in cap space

Chicago Bulls are now out of cap space What's next? 1. Currently own bird rights to Nick Richards, Anfernee Simons, Collin Sexton. Either they re-sign, trade them or let them walk 2. They'll have an exception they can use on a FA 3. Could trade existing players under contract

Reminder: Chicago Bulls have the full Bird Rights on Anfernee Simons & Collin Sexton & they can technically re-sign both over the cap or complete a sign & trade. Good chance that's the next moves. They used cap space on Zach Collins because they didn't own his full Bird rights.
