The Chicago Bulls’ 2022-23 campaign appears to have hit its rock bottom.

And surely enough, the Bulls proceeded to lose their sixth straight game – and Zach LaVine simply could […]

The Chicago Bulls were one of just three teams that completely sat out the NBA trade deadline festivities.

The Bulls engaged with the Brooklyn […]

It wasn’t too long ago that it felt like Zach LaVine already had one foot out the door.

So much so, that there were even rumors about some brewing discord […]

The seemingly never-ending Kyrie Irving-Nets saga came to a dramatic close Sunday. Brooklyn traded the eight-time All-Star to the Dallas Mavericks for Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian-Finney Smith, a 2029 first-round pick, and two second-round picks. The deal marks a homecoming for a fan-favorite in Dinwiddie, who spent four years in Brooklyn from 2017 to 2021. The […]

To the disappointment of LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers did not trade for Kyrie Irving, who was shipped to the Dallas Mavericks in the first blockbuster before Thursday’s NBA trade deadline.

Despite signing a five-year, $215 million contract with the Chicago Bulls in the offseason, 27-year-old guard Zach LaVine could find himself on a new team following the Feb. 9 trade deadline. “The [Los Angeles] Lakers, [Miami] Heat, [New York] Knicks and [Dallas] Mavericks have consistently been mentioned by league personnel as holding motivations to land […]

DeMar DeRozan and the Chicago Bulls did a lot of things wrong in their 108-103 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday.

Some indications may lead […]

It has been a roller-coaster season for the Chicago Bulls, who sit at 22-26 with just under two weeks to go until the 2023 NBA trade deadline. The rumblings about blowing the roster up had mostly subsided of late with the Bulls playing a bit better since the disastrous 11-18 start, but confounding losses like […]

The Chicago Bulls have largely underperformed this season, though they have played much better of late. In fact, they have a winning record in January and have slid into 10th place in the Eastern Conference. Does that mean they’re on the right track? We don’t think so. This Bulls team would be better off pushing […]

The Chicago Bulls dealt with some early drama this season when Zach LaVine was upset over head coach Billy Donovan benching him in mid-November, but it looks like the two have repaired their relationship to a certain extent.

The Chicago Bulls lost a heartbreaker on Wednesday night without DeMar DeRozan and had the chance to tie the game at 100 with seconds remaining in the fourth. After Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma drained what would be the game-winner, Zach LaVine came down the court and appeared to be fouled as his jumper clanked […]

There is Michael Jordan and then there is the rest. That’s a simple dichotomy of how players are tiered in the NBA in terms of greatness, and that’s the league in general. When it comes to legacies as a player for the Chicago Bulls, there’s no debate even about Jordan’s status as the basketball god […]

The Utah Jazz may have cooled down after their hot start this 2022-23 season, but Lauri Markkanen continues to ball out for the team and that should be enough to get him to the All-Star Game.

The Chicago Bulls have been playing better basketball as of late after their uneven start to the season.

DeRozan is leading the […]

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine got one step closer to breaking a ridiculous Michael Jordan record after his performance against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday.

The New York Knicks are probably the most confusing team in the NBA this season. One week, they are in the middle of an eight-game win streak; the next week, they find themselves in the middle of a five-game losing streak. It’s a strange situation for the team to find themselves in, but they may […]
