The NBA offseason is fully underway, as the 2023 NBA Draft has come and gone, and the Chicago Bulls even made some noise. They traded into the draft, adding a rookie with the 34th pick. Then, after the draft, they made some moves in undrafted free agency, adding to their roster even more.
While Bulls fans won’t get a chance to see those players in action alongside the likes of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan until October, Summer League will provide them an opportunity to show off their skills before then. Every year, Summer League breeds new potential stars, or, at the very least, fun storylines for fans to follow in the depths of July.
But who is playing for the Bulls’ Summer League team this year? Let’s take a look at their roster for Las Vegas this offseason.
