The Chicago Bulls are a professional basketball team who are a part of the Eastern Conference in the NBA. They were established in 1966 and have won six championships till date, all coming between 1991 and 1998.
However, the Bulls have struggled in the last few seasons, making the playoffs just once in the last six seasons. Additionally, since the 2021/22 season, star guard Lonzo Ball has played only 35 games for the Bulls. Ball missed the entire 2022-23 season due to ongoing knee issues.
Some online reports suggest that Ball is expected to return at some point in the 2023/24 season. If he can return fully healthy, the trio of Lonzo Ball, DeMar DeRozan and Zach Lavine can definitely help the Bulls make some noise in the east.
The Chicago Bulls are led by Demar DeRozan and Zach LaVine in the last few years. DeRozan has been one of the consistent scorers for the Bulls in the NBA. The absence of Ball was felt last season as the Bulls (40-42) finished 10th in the east. In 35 games for the Bulls so far, Ball has averaged 13.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.9 blocks per game.
