The Chicago Bulls have endured a disastrous 2019-20 season, but they can end on a good note. Here are three players who need to finish this campaign strong.
The narrative has been the same for a while now, the Chicago Bulls have had a terrible season. It’s not a new story, as only 20 games remain in this long, arduous and painstaking campaign. Whether it be all the losses – there have been a lot of them, another injury-plagued season for their core of young talent or general malaise over the franchise, it’s been another lost season in the Windy City.
Of course, we cannot go this far without discussing the disaster that has been the Jim Boylen era. It hasn’t been pretty, and as the season goes on, it just gets uglier. Flashback to last season, do you all remember the near mutiny when Boylen kicked off his tenure? That was just the start, and it’s hardly improved since then.
To be fair, it hasn’t exactly been all bad in Chicago this season. After all, Zach LaVine is averaging a career-high 25.5 points per game, Kris Dunn proved – before he was lost for the season with another knee injury – that he can be a lock-down defender even if he’s not a bonafide starter in this league. Coby White has been on a tear lately and giving Bulls fans (and probably LaVine) reason to be excited that’s there’s another high-volume scorer on the roster.
The Chicago Bulls are nearing the end of the line for their 2019-20 run. There are still ways they can redeem this season, here are three players who can help with that.
