Latest news and updates about the Bulls
The Cleveland Cavaliers could really use a win. They have a chance at revenge tonight against the Chicago Bulls. Let’s look at three things to watch. Can the Cavs wake up? On my last preview, I said that this header would stay evergreen until further notice. Nothing has changed since then. The Cavs played a […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have lost seven of their last 10. This includes dropping three out of four to bad teams such as the Golden State Warriors, Charlotte Hornets, and Chicago Bulls. The Cavs will have a chance to rebound from their latest bad loss as they take on the Bulls again. Chicago was able to […]

Despite a quiet night from second-year forward Matas Buzelis , the Chicago Bulls may have saved their season by winning their first of two home-and-home encounters against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday with a 127-111 blowout United Center victory . Chicago improved to a still-bad 11-15 record on the year. The game was fairly even through most of the first half, but the Bulls’ scoring off turnovers, some tenacious zone defense and some tactical big man rotation tweaks helped the tea...

NBA trade season unofficially kicked off on Monday , when most players inked to free agent deals over the summer became eligible to be moved. This year, Chicago only has one such player in point guard Tre Jones . The Bulls are often averse to making many transactions, given how terrible their front office is at pulling them off. Last season, Chicago acquired Jones from the San Antonio Spurs as part of the three-team blockbuster Zach LaVine deadline deal with the Sacramento Kings. Jon...

I know, I know—the Chicago Bulls just beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, and we need to actually find the one piece we need to become contenders (sarcasm). But unfortunately, despite a big win, the Bulls are still on a bit of a cliff dive, and with a potentially stacked 2026 NBA Draft class on the horizon, it’s time to start searching for the light at the end of this dark tunnel. The best way to do that? Understand what the Chicago Bulls need, what this draft class brings, and dive into colleg...

The Cleveland Cavaliers lost to another bad team as they fell to the Chicago Bulls 127-111. In their last four games, they’ve lost to the Golden State Warriors, who were without their three best players, barely scraped by a then three-win Washington Wizards team missing multiple starters, lost to a Charlotte Hornets team without its […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers are hitting new lows every week. It’s time to be brutally honest about the team right now, after they lost to the Chicago Bulls 127-111. LOSER – Everyone, the whole dang team Alright, let’s just do this. With apologies to Jaylon Tyson and Thomas Bryant, who played their hearts out and did […]

There couldn’t have been a better way to kick off my first-ever Chicago Bulls post-game breakdown on Bleacher Nation. A night of good coaching, a synergistic team performance, record-setting stats, and a Josh Giddey revenge arc against the team that put him in an ankle brace. What more could you ask for? I can already hear the keyboards clicking about how a win like this keeps the Bulls in NBA purgatory. But a performance this dominant and connected, against a decent Cleveland Cavaliers t...

The Cleveland Cavaliers suffered another crushing loss as the Chicago Bulls defeated them 127-111. All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. Donovan Mitchell 32 points, 5 assists, 1 rebound At some point, the Cavs will have to win games even when Mitchell doesn’t outright carry them. I guess they aren’t ready […]

Stop me if you’ve heard this before. The Cleveland Cavaliers started strong, let go of the rope at the end of the first quarter, allowed their opponent to go on an extended run in the second half, and needed Donovan Mitchell to lead a comeback victory. Except this time, Cleveland’s lack of defense in the […]

The Chicago Bulls will look to curb their recent nosedive on Wednesday night at the United Center, where they’ll host a banged-up Cleveland Cavaliers team that, so far, has been struggling to replicate its 64-18 run in 2024-25. Cleveland will be missing reigning Defensive Player of the Year power forward/center Evan Mobley, plus key wings Max Strus (a former Bulls castoff) and Sam Merrill. But they’ll still have the best three players on the floor in All-Stars Donovan Mitchell, Darius Gar...

Although the Bulls have enjoyed an extended break since Sunday, the NBA at large has already been busy this week. Beyond Tuesday’s Emirates NBA Cup Finals — during which the New York Knicks finally won something, beating the San Antonio Spurs — buzz has been building about the hapless Clippers, the struggling Bucks are looking for help, and some All-Stars could return from lingering injuries. Let’s dive in to some more general league chatter. Clippers Punishment Incoming? O...

The Cleveland Cavaliers have struggled against their last two subpar opponents. The Chicago Bulls are better than the Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets, but are still a team that, on paper, the Cavs should be able to handle. The offensive side of the ball let Cleveland down in their overtime loss to Charlotte. As has […]

Fifth-year reserve Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu has been missed while sitting out the team’s last two contests with thumb injuries, and has now taken the time to provide an update on the extent of the problem. Or, more concerningly, problems. Per K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network , Dosunmu has revealed that both his thumbs are sprained. While he asserts that his left thumb is more painful, he is also dealing with a bone bruise in his right thumb. The 6-foot-4 University of Illinoi...

When it rains in Chicago, it pours. With not much to celebrate day to day for the Chicago Bulls, the one thing we’ve always had was Michael Jordan and his legendary run in the Windy City. But here comes Stephen Curry, breaking not one, but two Jordan records — with another major one approaching soon. So, what were the TWO Michael Jordan records broken? Let me read you the charges facing the Baby-Faced Assassin. On December 12, in a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Curry ...

Monday, Dec. 15, stands as the unofficial start of this year’s trade season, as it marks the first day most free agent contracts signed over the summer can be traded. With the Chicago Bulls in the midst of a miserable stretch — they have lost eight of their last nine games, with six of those defeats arriving against teams with losing records — it’s clear that a change may be needed. Given longtime Bulls team president Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley’s shared disi...

Could Billy Donovan’s future with the Chicago Bulls be in jeopardy now that the bloom is fully off the (Derrick?) rose on the team’s season? Greetings all, new Bleacher Nation contributor Alex Kirschenbaum here. My colleague, Joshua Miranda, and I are eager to get cooking, and we promise will not be sugarcoating anything as we unpack what’s looking like yet another lost season in 2025-26 for the league’s greatest franchise. I’m only a little biased. Chicago started the season with a ...
