Key player for the Chicago Bulls
Last year was a very important year for Zach LaVine, a run in which he showed his high numbers were compatible with a Playoff zone team. The issue for the former UCLA student is that once again physical issues have cropped up, which has Quick elimination of the Chicago Bulls at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks.
The same problems that limited him 67 games and for a long time played at 50%, they allowed DeMar DeRozan to get most of the attention. A fact that slightly changed the focus on LaVine, who until December was at an impressive level. In that way, it could be said that the shooting guard’s previous campaign was somewhat clouded by his physicality and DeRozan’s excellence.
Now, just a few months after signing the max with the Bulls, LaVine will have no excuses. In fact, he has the challenge to confirm in the eyes of the league that he is a top player and the real image of the team. At 26 the scorer of Washington it’s up to him to make Chicago a contender again, it’s not an easy case.
The story ahead of the Chicago Bulls in 2022-2023
Unfortunately, the most important point to follow with the Bulls in this course will be the same as in the last Regular Phase: the health of its key players. The lineup is expected to be the most important for Chicago last season and consists of Ball, LaVine, DeRozan, Williams and Vucevic played just 63 minutes all season.
The various injuries affecting Lonzo and Patrick have prevented Billy Donovan’s men from being as competitive as they could have been expected to be. Which extended to his sixth man, Alex Caruso, who was only available for 41 games.
The positive for the Bulls is the fact that during the time they have had their main names healthy they have been one of the best teams in the Conference, even leading it in several divisions. If they can solve these problems, they could give a lot to talk about, but without even debuting they will no longer be able to rely on Lonzo Ball, who continues to recover from ongoing soreness in his left knee.
