Definitely the biggest positional need for head coach Jim Boylen and the Chicago Bulls at this point of the regular season is on the wing. A bevy of injury troubles on the wing this season to the Bulls top two small forwards, Otto Porter Jr. and Chandler Hutchison, caused Boylen to have to try a bunch of different looks at that spot in his rotations.
Granted, with the recent sprained ankle injury to the Bulls second-year center Wendell Carter Jr., the frontcourt depth isn’t looking too great either. The Bulls are likely to now be rolling with either rookie big man Daniel Gafford or veteran forward Thaddeus Young in the starting five in the absence of WCJ at the five.
