The Bulls have garnered some optimism thanks to their stellar offseason moves, Otto Porter Jr. and a young core that seems to have a fair amount of potential. Zach LaVine and Lauri Markkanen have shown legitimate flashes of excellence, especially this past February, and Wendell Carter Jr. has the makings of a terrific two-way center. The Bulls also just added a potential point guard of the future in Coby White.
However, we’re still dealing with a lot of unknowns here, and just how much potential this core has depends on who you ask or where you look.
