Chicago Bulls: 5 options for pick No. 7 in 2018 NBA Draft

The Chicago Bulls have the No. 7 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. Here’s a look at five players they should look at.

On the heels of an offseason in which they parted ways with multiple veteran players, the Chicago Bulls came into the 2017-18 campaign with low expectations. As expected from a team mostly comprised of younger players, the Bulls endured their fair share of growing pains during what proved to be a difficult season.

First, there was the preseason altercation between Bobby Portis and Nikola Mirotic that resulted in the two rotational players missing 31 games, which subsequently led to the front office dealing the latter to the New Orleans Pelicans for a late first round selection.

That, combined with several losing streaks and players being in and out of the lineup at different stretches, led to the Bulls losing 55 games – the team’s worst record since the 2003-04 campaign.

The positive from this season was that multiple players showed noticeable improvement during Fred Hoiberg’s third year as the team’s head coach. With the 2018 NBA Draft being just a little over a month away, the Bulls will be looking to add some more quality talent to help them compete for a playoff spot next season.

With that being said, here’s a look at the five players that warrant consideration with the No. 7 overall pick in this year’s draft.
