Just one more day from now, and the Chicago Bulls could likely be on the clock getting ready to make their first-round selection in the 2022 NBA Draft.

But, before the draft kicks off, the league could see plenty of action take place. This week is the time where some big deals could get done, as teams gear up for free agency that begins July 1.

Some teams could be looking to shed salary. Others might be interested in acquiring draft capital, whether it be adding more picks or moving up in this year’s draft. Still, there could be teams looking to legitimately add talent and gear up for a championship run.

The Bulls likely fall into the last category, coming off a season that saw them sit atop the Eastern Conference at one point, yet fall to an early postseason exit. Before the draft opens up, Chicago could certainly get something interesting done.

Before the 2022 NBA Draft begins, the Chicago Bulls very well could make a big move or two.

Vice President Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley took over a team that needed a boost of energy. The Bulls needed leadership that cared about winning and making moves in order to do so.

What we’ve seen from those two in the short time since taking over has been exactly that. The Bulls have added talent. They have made significant moves. They have not been a team that sits on their laurels and does nothing while other teams have all the fun.

This is a franchise that wants to win again, and fans appreciate that. As we approach draft time, the front office is certainly thinking about making a move or two. We’ll get into some of the recent rumors and possible trades that go along with them, as there are three significant moves which could happen before Thursday night.
