Bulls Rebuilding With a Twist | NBA News

The Chicago Bulls are staring down a rebuilding season with win projections in the high 20s, as they prioritize player development over immediate success under new leadership. Despite flashes from young stars like Caleb Wilson, Josh Giddey, and Matas Buzelis, inexperience and a lack of veteran presence make a deep playoff run unlikely. The NBA’s new lottery rules may even incentivize mediocrity, pushing the Bulls to avoid the bottom of the standings — hence recent moves for veterans like Nic Claxton and Norman Powell. With coach Tiago Splitter’s track record of nurturing talent, the path to exceeding projections is steep, but the focus remains on long-term growth, not short-term wins.
