Bulls Win… But Did They Hurt The Tank?!

The Chicago Bulls pulled off a surprising win over the Phoenix Suns, but the bigger conversation might be what that victory means for the team’s NBA Draft lottery odds.

On this episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the three biggest takeaways from the Bulls’ win, including their dominance in the paint and how Collin Sexton and Tre Jones attacked Phoenix’s defense all night.

But the bigger story may be the Bulls’ dangerous position in the NBA Draft lottery standings. With Chicago currently sitting around the 9th worst record, every win could hurt their chances of landing a top pick in the loaded 2026 NBA Draft class.

We also discuss how Cooper Flagg’s return for the Dallas Mavericks could actually help the Bulls climb the lottery ladder if Dallas starts winning games down the stretch.

Plus, the Bulls are walking a fine line between competing and protecting their future — especially with Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis dealing with injuries.
