Category: Bulls NBA Draft

In a newly published write-up from our sister site HoopsHype, the projected first round selection of each draft pick in the 2024 NBA draft has been forecast by making use of a system that, as H/H analyst Alberto De Roa writes, uses the Draft Predictor, “a new tool that factors in our Aggregated Mock Draft and our workout tracker to generate the probability of every player landing at each draft slot.”

And regarding the Chicago Bulls’ No. 11 overall pick of the 2024 NBA draft, HoopsHype sees the most likely prospect to be drafted by Chicago as senior University of Tennessee small forward Dalton Knecht at 24.9% overall odds.

Other potential Bulls draft projections include University of Southern California point guard Isaiah Collier (18.2% odds), G League Ignite small forward Ron Holland (10.5% odds), University of Connecticut combo guard Stephon Castle (8.1% odds), and Baylor shooting guard Ja’Kobe Walter (8.1% odds).

Should the Chicago Bulls consider drafting former University of Colorado small forward Cody Williams? A 19-year-old native of Gilbert, Arizona, the Buffalo alum is a freshman who stands at 6-foot-7.75 with a 7-foot-1 wingspan, and weighs a wispy 178 lbs that will need to bulk up to play in the Association.

An excellent shot from beyond the arc (41.5%) at low volume, his good free throw efficiency (71.4%) suggests it will translate at the NBA level. However, Williams needs to turn the ball over less, improve his defense and rebounding, and increase his shot attempts at the next level. Projected to go in the 2024 NBA draft more or less around where Chicago will be picking (No. 11 overall), Williams is a worthwhile gamble for upside for the Bulls.

The hosts of the “CHGO Bulls” podcast recently sat down to break down his fit and potential for Chicago’s first round pick.

The 2024 NBA draft is still several months away in the summer to come, but NBA draft experts have already been hard at work trying to project which ball clubs will end up taking which prospects in the 2024 cohort.

The Chicago Bulls, slated to select their first round pick at No. 11 overall, have been seen as great landing spots for University of Indiana big man Kel’el Ware and University of Colorado forward Tristan Da Silva by some draft analysts.

The hosts of the “Locked On Bulls” podcast, Haize and Pat the Designer, took a deep dive into these two players’ potential fit with the Bulls.

Who might the Chicago Bulls draft at No. 11 overall this summer in the 2024 NBA draft? Could it be one of the prospects currently mocked by the experts to go in the Bulls range like University of Southern California point guard Isaiah Collier, University of Colorado shooting guard Cody Williams or Baylor small forward Ja’Kobe Walter?

Or might they reach a bit on a raw project with upside, like Cholet forward Tidjane Salaun or Purdue center Zach Edey? And is there any chance a player like University of Connecticut guard Stephon Castle or Tennessee wing Dalton Knecht could fall to Chicago’s range?

Which prospects in the 2024 NBA draft make the best targets for the Chicago Bulls with their No. 11 overall pick? In what is widely considered to be a relatively weak cohort of prospects this summer, the Bulls will need to look for the right player to help push them back in the direction of contention as they begin a retool of the roster in earnest.

But which specific players ought they target in this year’s draft? Would it make sense for Ron Holland or Matas Buzelis if they fall from where they are projected? Should they be keeping tabs on Kel’el Ware or Zach Edey?

It has been a full nine years since the Chicago Bulls have won a postseason series, and their luck has not been so great in the regular season lately as well. Injuries plagued their last few campaigns, with Chicago needing some serious luck to get back on track as a franchise any time soon.

And while some wiser moves from the ball club’s front office would go a long way towards making their own luck, it’s safe to say that Bulls fans and execs both are hoping for some serious luck on the night of the league’s 2024 NBA draft lottery.

The hosts of the “Locked On Bulls” podcast, Haize and Pat the Designer, got into the stat quo in Chicago and looked ahead to the draft on one of the most recent episodes of their podcast.
