🚨 The Chicago Bulls’ draft conversation cannot stop at No. 4 or No. 15 — because pick No. 38 could still become a real opportunity for Bryson Graham to add toughness, size, development upside, and rotation value. 🚨

On today’s episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down some of his favorite second-round NBA Draft targets for the Bulls, including Tarris Reed Jr., Zuby Ejiofor, Henri Veesaar, and Andrej Stojaković.

Reed brings the type of physical interior presence the Bulls have lacked — a powerful 6-foot-11, 265-pound center who rebounds, screens, finishes through contact, defends with strength, and flashes passing feel. Ejiofor offers toughness, energy, rim protection, rebounding, and play-finishing ability as a strong complementary frontcourt piece. Veesaar brings a different profile as a mobile 7-footer with stretch potential, offensive feel, and long-term developmental upside. Stojaković gives Chicago a wing option with slashing ability, mid-range scoring, defensive versatility, and NBA bloodlines — though the outside shooting remains the biggest question.

Haize also reacts to the report that the Bulls are considering bringing back several members of Billy Donovan’s coaching staff, including the possibility of Wes Unseld Jr. being considered as a head coaching candidate. While Haize is not sold on Unseld as the next Bulls head coach, keeping Unseld and Dan Craig as assistants under the next coach could make sense because of their player development backgrounds.

With Graham building a new front office and the Bulls entering a critical draft cycle, every pick matters. No. 38 may not carry the same hype as No. 4 or No. 15, but this is where smart teams find role players, developmental bigs, energy defenders, and long-term rotation pieces.

Tap in as Haize breaks down which second-round prospects make the most sense for Chicago and what the latest coaching staff rumors could mean for the Bulls’ rebuild.

🚨 The Chicago Bulls’ No. 4 pick is getting most of the attention, but the NBA Draft Combine may have revealed something just as important: the Bulls could land a serious player at No. 15. 🚨

While Bulls fans continue debating whether Chicago should take Caleb Wilson, Cameron Boozer, or another top prospect at No. 4, the depth of this draft class is starting to stand out. The combine showed that the Bulls may have multiple strong options with their second first-round pick — from high-floor wings to modern bigs to upside swings.

Haize breaks down several prospects who could be in play for the Bulls at No. 15, including Cameron Carr, Hannes Steinbach, Chris Cenac Jr., Morez Johnson Jr., Jayden Quaintance, and Dailyn Swain. Could Carr be the prototypical 3-and-D wing with more scoring upside than people realize? Could Cenac give Chicago a modern big with long-term two-way upside? Is Quaintance worth the injury risk if his ceiling is higher than most players in that range?

The conversation also shifts to the Bulls’ front office, where Bryson Graham continues to move quickly. Chicago is adding Stephen Mervis as Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations and Acie Law IV as Vice President of Player Personnel, giving the Bulls more strategy, cap management, scouting, and player evaluation experience inside the building.

For a franchise that has often operated with a traditional front office structure, this feels like a major step toward a more modern, collaborative model. And so far, Michael Reinsdorf’s words about giving Graham room to build his staff are holding true.

Is this finally the Bulls entering the modern NBA front office era? And how much could the No. 15 pick shape the future of this rebuild?

Tap in with Chicago Bulls Central as Haize breaks it all down.

🚨 The Chicago Bulls’ front office rebuild under Bryson Graham is moving fast — and two major hires are now taking shape. 🚨

The Bulls are finalizing a deal to hire Orlando Magic assistant GM Stephen Mervis as Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations under new Executive Vice President Bryson Graham. Chicago is also hiring Brooklyn Nets executive Acie Law IV as Vice President of Player Personnel.

For Bulls fans, these moves matter.

Mervis spent 12 years rising through the Orlando Magic front office, specializing in strategy and player evaluation. That is a major addition for a Bulls organization that needs more structure, stronger internal decision-making, and a modernized approach to roster building.

Law brings a different but equally important background. He held scouting and draft-focused roles with the Sacramento Kings and Oklahoma City Thunder from 2018 to 2025 before joining Brooklyn. Law also played four NBA seasons, including a brief stop with the Bulls during the 2009-10 season, and was teammates with Graham at Texas A&M.

Haize breaks down why the Bulls adding Mervis and Law could be a major sign that Graham is building a more collaborative, evaluation-driven front office. After years of frustration with unclear direction, Chicago now appears to be putting more voices in the room with experience in scouting, strategy, player personnel, and team-building.

But the real question remains: will this front office turn strong resumes into better decisions?

With the Bulls holding major draft capital and entering a critical offseason, these hires could help shape everything from the 2026 NBA Draft to roster evaluation, player development, trades, and the long-term rebuild.

Tap in with Chicago Bulls Central as Haize reacts to the latest Bulls front office hires and what they mean for the future of the franchise.
