The Chicago Bulls are stuck in basketball purgatory—not good enough to be an outright playoff team but not bad enough to pack it in and chase the lottery. It is a hard place to be, especially for Bulls fans, but it doesn’t have to be for fantasy players because Chicago does have some pieces, as we’ll show you in this draft.
Your Main Man: Nikola Vucevic
We chose Vucevic as Chicago’s main man because he’s a consistent double-double guy, and he didn’t fail us this season as he did average a double-double. That’s why we’re choosing him as the Bulls’ main man again at this point of the season, because he’s going to give you somewhere along the lines of 18.5 points, 10.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.8 steal, and 0.7 block.

Surefire Studs: Coby White, Josh Giddey
White has been a rock-solid contributor ever since he was drafted seventh overall by the Bulls in the 2019 NBA Draft. But he took things up several notches last season and is continuing the momentum this year, averaging 20.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 0.9 steals in the regular season. There’s no reason to believe a drop-off is coming since White is now the Bulls’ top man on the perimeter.
Giddey stamped his class as an all-around marvel this season, posting per-game averages of 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.6 block. He’s also a triple-double threat every game, and proof of it are the seven he recorded this season—the last one a 28-point, 16-rebound, 11-assist masterpiece that he spiked with 2 steals and 3 blocks.
Low Cost, High Value Picks: Kevin Huerter
Huerter, for his part, has emerged as one of the Bulls’ more reliable player of the bench, posting 13.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.2 steals. These are nice numbers at this point in the fantasy draft as you can get him for fewer credits and still get good value out of it.
