So will it be a sweet 16 for the Bulls this year?
That’s where the Bulls officially will select in this year’s NBA draft following Tuesday’s draft lottery results. The Bulls had a miniscule chance of getting a lottery pick from the Sacramento Kings from the Luol Deng trade. Instead, they will get the Kings’ second round pick, No. 38 in this draft.
The Bulls hold onto their No. 16 pick. My early projection is they select Louisville shooting guard Donovan Mitchell.
Mitchell is the exceptionally athletic and explosive undersized Louisville shooting guard. He’s generally regarded as a first round pick in the late teens or 20s on most of the mock draft lists and from team executives.
