13-43. Previous: 27th. Chicago Bulls. 27. team. 24.

Kris Dunn still isn’t showcasing an ability to grow into the future point guard the Bulls desire. He remains with the team post trade deadline so were left to wonder if Chicago shopped him or haven’t come to the same conclusion.

Still, the Bulls remain in the mix for those bottom three teams even with wins in week 16 which keeps them in the mix to land the top draft pick. That means they won’t likely be willing to part with their own first-round pick unless of course they could land Anthony Davis and he agreed to re-up next summer which he’s indicated is unlikely despite Chicago being his home town.
