6. Chicago Bulls
At least in my opinion, the Chicago Bulls are one of the most difficult teams to gauge in the Eastern Conference. They were great during the regular season and then faded once injuries took their toll on the team.
The Lonzo Ball stuff is certainly concerning. But let’s see where he is when training camp begins for the Bulls. DeMar DeRozan will still be a good player for the team and it’s great that Zach LaVine is back.
The Andre Drummond move doesn’t really move the needle for me and they’ll need to get valuable play from Nikola Vucevic for this team to really play a factor in the East. All that said, I’d be extremely surprised if they didn’t make the postseason this season.
