Chicago Bulls: Is the team’s recent success sustainable heading into 2023?
Can the Chicago Bulls keep winning?
The Chicago Bulls have a very talented team, even without their starting point guard Lonzo Ball. The team has three all-stars that need to continue to work well together. DeRozan continues to score at will and hit huge shots, as he is the most consistent offensive weapon for the Bulls, averaging over 26 points a game. If Zach Lavine can continue to improve and get back to his elite-scoring offensive game, this team will win games.
The main concern for this team the last few weeks was if the big three could score together. We have seen them finally work well together, and now that they are scoring enough points to win, the defense is also in question.
Patrick Williams was looking rough to begin the season, but his elite defensive ability has been essential for the Bulls’ recent success. Williams has become a vital role for this team, and if his passive-aggressive nature can have a 180-degree turn, he may become the key to the Bulls’ future.
If the Bulls continue to win, this team can become a play-in tournament contender or even a playoff contender. The Bulls’ talent is much better than what their record says.

But don’t be surprised if the Bulls front office decides to trade away a star, press the restart button, and hope for a top draft pick in this upcoming NBA Draft that is stacked with Victor Wembanyama and Scoot Henderson, who both will become franchise changing players.
