The Chicago Bulls concluded the 2024-2025 NBA season with a 39-43 record, securing the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference yet again falling short of the playoffs. Their offensive efficiency ranked 20th, while their defense was slightly better at 19th, showcasing a season of mediocrity that has plagued them for nearly a decade. The offseason saw significant changes with DeMar DeRozan departing and Zach LaVine traded, signaling a potential rebuild. However, there are glimmers of hope on the roster.

Nikola Vucevic remains the center of attention after another solid year, averaging 18.5 points and 10.1 rebounds, continuing his trend of durable performance with multiple double-doubles. Meanwhile, Josh Giddey, who joined in a trade, had a breakout season, posting impressive stats that indicate he could be a future cornerstone for the franchise. Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu also showcased their potential, making them valuable assets moving forward.
