When the season ended, Arturas Karnisovas made it clear that he has no intention of rebuilding the Chicago Bulls. Instead, he plans to run it back and make another playoff push next year. There’s always a chance he changes his mind this summer, but barring that, it seems as though most of last season’s Chicago squad will be back next year.
Obviously, the play of Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, and Nikola Vucevic will be the most important, but other Bulls will have to step up, too. According to Keith Smith of Spotrac, however, Patrick Williams‘ improvement will also be crucial. The 21-year-old forward could be due for an increased role.
