DMAC NBA Fantasy Bible and Old Man Squad drop a value-forward look at early-season targets. Murray carries enormous upside when healthy, Garland offers solid per-game counting stats even with a brief start, and Murphy looks like a safe late-round breakout as Zion returns. Poeltl anchors the middle rounds, Clingan adds rookie upside, Turner provides steady boards and blocks, and Zion’s health underscores the Pelicans’ ceiling. Injury timing, leadership roles, and ADP shifts drive the draft-day decisions.

Josh Giddy's post-practice poise signals Bulls' plans to lean into his breakout role, with camp clarity around everyone’s responsibilities and a path to 41-45 wins, possibly entering the playoffs as a six-seed or via a winning play-in run. Jonathan Kuminga’s rumored price tag and interest from Bulls, Kings, and Suns test the roster’s upside versus development. Giannis speculation stacks the offseason narrative as a one-piece-away gamble, even as Katie Duffy departs, reshaping the show’s chemistry. The episode mixes basketball strategy with playful personal bits and Taylor Swift chatter as a send-off.

Day two of Bulls training camp brought injury caution and ramp-up talk as Kobe White nurses a calf strain and Patrick Williams tweaked an ankle, with the Bulls prioritizing a cautious start to prevent lingering issues. Trey Jones and Kevin Herder spoke about stepping into key bench roles, while Jonathan Kuminga’s restricted free agency and a potential January trade window kept the Bulls and fans thinking big picture. A feature on Noah Asen and notes from Billy Donovan framed the depth-driven approach Chicago is betting on this season.

Trey Jones emerged as a cornerstone of the second unit, pairing well with Josh Giddy (in theory) for a measured, pace-conscious attack. Herder’s shooting gravity and defensive steadiness were highlighted as critical to balancing the rotation and opening up looks for DeRozan and Vooch. The show also touched on the broader market chatter around Kuminga and how a January deadline could reshape Chicago’s plans.
