2023-24 Offseason Preview

Chicago Bulls

Ownership Rating: 3 (Two playoff appearances. 1x Semis appearance. 2x Worst record in the league)

Studs: None

Cap: $40.0m

2023 Picks: 2023 CHI 1st (Best lotto odds), 2023 CLE 1st (1.21) and 2023 CHI 2nd (2.1)

UFA: none

Outlook: Nuts deep in another long rebuild. Unfortunately having a stockpile of draft picks didn't produce much star material. Jaden Ivey can be a difference maker but CHI managed to whiff on several other picks. They have to pray nothing crazy happens in the lotto. If they get Wemby watch out. They have a lot of cap to grab big names in FA and enough prospects to trade for some win now talent.

How to Improve: 

*Cross Your Fingers - It can't be emphasized enough how much Wemby could change their fortunes.
*Be Patient - Don't panic on the last rookie class. Some of those guys can play and will continue to grow but it could take some time. 
*Bye Joe - Try to give away a fully paid Joe Ingles for a late 2nd. Ingles won't be in your future plans so maybe a contender can use a free player in exchange for a lotto ticket.
