Bulls

Anyone who’s anyone expects the Chicago Bulls to trade Nikola Mirotic before the NBA’s Feb. 8 deadline. Except, here’s the thing: What if they don’t? What if their asking price is too high? Cost may, in fact, be an issue for any suitors looking to strike deal, because the Bulls are demanding a first-round pick [...]

Nikola Mirotic doesn’t seem like he’ll be a member of the Chicago Bulls much longer. ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported earlier this week that two sides are still fixing for a divorce, and that the 26-year-old forward held the Utah Jazz in special regard. Well, the Jazz apparently feel the same way. They’ve spoken to the [...]

Some good news has come down the pipe for the Chicago Bulls. The most prized acquisition (in my opinion) of the Bulls Jimmy Butler trade, Zach LaVine, will finally be making his Bulls debut after recovering from a torn ACL suffered in February of 2017.

So, um, Denzel Valentine is really starting to feel the 2017-18 Chicago Bulls. After starting the season 3-20, seemingly on the fast track towards the NBA’s best lottery odds, the boys in red and white have rattled off seven straight victories. This streak coincides with Nikola Mirotic’s return from facial fractures and a concussion following [...]

Nikola Mirotic is wrapping up his recovery from facial fractures and a concussion he suffered prior to the start of the season during an altercation with Chicago Bulls teammate Bobby Portis. And, by his own words, he isn’t angry at anyone—not anymore. All is well in Chicago. Except, not totally. From the Chicago Tribune‘s K.C. Johnson: [...]

Dwyane Wade isn’t sweating the recent twist and turns his NBA career has taken. With the Cleveland Cavaliers facing off against the Miami Heat on Tuesday night, these past couple days have no doubt incited some level of reflection in the shooting guard. He spent his first 13 years in the NBA with the Heat. [...]

Rumor has it Zach LaVine could make his Chicago Bulls debut sometime in mid-December. From the Chicago Tribune‘s K.C. Johnson: Hoiberg reiterated Zach LaVine is scheduled to be cleared for contact on the West Coast trip. LaVine has been pointing to the Nov. 20 practice in Los Angeles. The goal is for LaVine to play games likely in [...]

Nikola Mirotic already isn’t happy that Bobby Portis is playing while he himself recovers from injuries sustained during a physical altercation between the two. And now he has another reason to wear an indefinite frowny face: Rookie Lauri Markkanen has the Chicago Bulls’ starting power forward spot on lock—so much so that Mirotic’s return won’t force [...]

Nikola Mirotic is back with the Chicago Bulls in some capacity. But that doesn’t mean he’s buried the hatchet with Bobby Portis. K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune brought word on Monday that Mirotic, who suffered facial fractures and a concussion after a physical altercation with Portis, is back hanging around with the team: [tweet https://twitter.com/KCJHoop/status/930116907264602114] [...]

Bobby Portis’ eight-game suspension from the Chicago Bulls wasn’t enough. Not for Nikola Mirotic. The team suspended Portis after a physical altercation with Mirotic that left the latter with a concussion and facial fracture. He is still weeks away from a return, but Portis made his season debut with the Bulls on Tuesday night in [...]
