Bulls Join Bennedict Mathurin Race?! Duren/Watson 2027 Plans, Jalen Smith Trade Buzz & Preseason
The Chicago Bulls rumor mill is heating up — and now Bennedict Mathurin is reportedly a name to watch.Haize breaks down the latest report that Chicago has emerged as another known suitor alongside New Orleans for Clippers restricted free agent Bennedict Mathurin. Mathurin is officially on the 2026 restricted free-agent list after the Clippers issued him a qualifying offer, and Marc Stein previously reported New Orleans plus a second suitor had shown interest.Could Mathurin make sense for the Bulls? Haize looks at the fit, the cost, the restricted free agency complications, and whether Chicago should chase another young scoring wing now or preserve flexibility for the bigger 2027 picture.Then, the show turns to Jalen Duren vs Peyton Watson as possible 2027 Bulls targets. Duren is the bigger star swing, but Watson is the cleaner roster fit beside Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson and Nic Claxton. The current verdict: Watson fits the Bulls better as currently constructed, while Duren would require a bigger frontcourt reset.Plus, Haize reacts to Jalen Smith trade buzz after reported Lakers interest, and why Smith’s shooting, expiring contract, and frontcourt versatility could make him one of Chicago’s better trade chips.And finally, the Chicago Bulls 2026-27 preseason schedule is out — headlined by a must-watch Caleb Wilson vs Cameron Boozer rematch when the Bulls face Memphis.🔥 Topics include:Bennedict Mathurin linked to BullsMathurin’s restricted free agency fitShould Chicago chase Mathurin now or protect 2027 cap space?Peyton Watson vs Jalen Duren as 2027 targetsWhy Watson fits better beside Caleb Wilson and Matas BuzelisWhy Duren would force a Nic Claxton decisionBulls 2027 cap-space pathsJalen Smith Lakers trade interestChicago Bulls preseason scheduleCaleb Wilson vs Cameron Boozer rematch🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Norman Powell Saves Caleb Wilson From Pressure?! Bulls’ Josh Giddey Role & Noa Essengue Concern
The Chicago Bulls are entering a new era, but the roster still has major questions — and today’s Chicago Bulls Central dives into three of the biggest.Haize breaks down why Norman Powell may be exactly what Caleb Wilson needs in his rookie season. Powell gives Chicago a proven scoring option who can take pressure off Wilson early, allowing the No. 4 pick to grow into his role instead of being forced to carry the offense right away.Then the conversation shifts to Josh Giddey’s real position. Is he a point guard, shooting guard, small forward, or something more modern? Haize explains why Giddey should remain Chicago’s primary offensive organizer while defending bigger guards/wings and spending more half-court possessions as a screener, cutter, and secondary playmaker.Plus, Noa Essengue’s Bulls future may be more complicated than fans realize after an ugly Summer League and a crowded frontcourt. Essengue still has tools, length, mobility, and developmental upside, but Caleb Wilson, Matas Buzelis, Dailyn Swain, Leonard Miller, Jalen Smith, and others make his path to minutes much tougher.🔥 Topics include:Why Norman Powell helps Caleb Wilson’s rookie developmentPowell as Chicago’s pressure-release scorerJosh Giddey’s best offensive and defensive roleWhy Giddey should be a hybrid, not boxed into one positionHow Tiago Splitter can modernize Giddey’s usageNoa Essengue’s Summer League strugglesWhy Noa’s rotation path is suddenly crowdedBryson Graham’s development prioritiesCaleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis as frontcourt foundationsWhat the Bulls must evaluate heading into training camp🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Bulls Have A CLOSER Problem… And Bryson Graham’s SLAP Plan Has One Big Question
🐂🔥 The Chicago Bulls finally have a roster that makes sense — but who gets the ball when the game is on the line?On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down one of the biggest unanswered questions for Tiago Splitter: who is the Bulls’ closer? Josh Giddey is the best organizer, Norman Powell is the most proven scorer, Matas Buzelis needs late-game creation reps, Caleb Wilson has the highest long-term ceiling, and Nic Claxton fits more as a screener, roller, and interior finisher. The Bulls may fit for 43 minutes, but the final five minutes are a different test.Haize also dives into Bryson Graham’s SLAP philosophy — size, length, athleticism, and physicality — and asks the question Bulls fans can’t ignore: should the acronym really be SLAPS, with shooting added to the formula? Chicago has added long, athletic, physical players like Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, and Nic Claxton, but the roster still has real spacing questions if too many non-shooters share the floor.Plus, could recently available big man Johni Broome be a sneaky Bulls target? Broome brings rebounding, passing, physicality, G League production, and a low-cost contract — but Chicago already has a crowded frontcourt and a bigger need for shooting and guard-wing depth.🔥 Topics include:Who should close games for the Bulls?Norman Powell as the short-term late-game answerJosh Giddey’s role as the organizerWhy Matas Buzelis needs pressure repsCaleb Wilson’s late-game development pathBryson Graham’s SLAP philosophyWhy shooting may be the missing ingredientHow poor spacing could hurt Caleb, Matas, Giddey, and ClaxtonCould Johni Broome fit Tiago Splitter’s system?Why Broome may be a Windy City developmental big🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Derrick Rose Sees HIMSELF In Caleb Wilson?! Bulls ROY Hype Is Getting REAL
Derrick Rose just gave Caleb Wilson the kind of co-sign that should have Chicago Bulls fans fired up.On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down Derrick Rose’s comments about Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson, including Rose saying he sees a little of himself in Wilson’s belief, confidence, and mindset. Rose described Wilson as having the kind of “delusional” confidence elite athletes need — the belief that he can be the No. 1 player — and explained why that is something he respects.Haize also reacts to Rose’s advice to Wilson about making “gambit” moves, sacrifice, discipline, and staying focused as the No. 4 overall pick begins his rookie journey in Chicago. Wilson honoring Rose with a silver rose pin on draft night only makes the connection even stronger.Then the conversation turns to the 2026 NBA Rookie of the Year race. Can Caleb Wilson become the fourth Bulls player ever to win ROY, joining Michael Jordan, Elton Brand, and Derrick Rose? After a dominant Summer League and rising odds from FanDuel and DraftKings, Wilson has already become one of the biggest names in the rookie race.🔥 Topics include:Derrick Rose praising Caleb WilsonWhy “delusional confidence” matters in sportsRose’s advice about sacrifice and disciplineCaleb Wilson honoring Derrick Rose on draft nightWilson’s Rookie of the Year oddsCan Wilson pass Cameron Boozer, Darryn Peterson, and AJ Dybantsa?Why Wilson’s highlight ability could help his award caseWhy Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson could push each otherBulls defense and transition identityWhy fans should not rush the rebuild🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

ESPN Got The Bulls Offseason WRONG?! Matas Buzelis MIP Leap & Caleb Wilson Hype
Did ESPN underrate the Chicago Bulls’ offseason? Haize breaks down why a C+ grade for Bryson Graham’s first offseason feels too harsh when the Bulls landed Caleb Wilson at No. 4, drafted Dailyn Swain at No. 15, added Nic Claxton, signed Norman Powell, brought back Zach Collins, and still maintained future flexibility.The Bulls did not have the flashiest offseason in the NBA, but they finally looked calculated. Powell’s deal includes a team option, Claxton was added without giving up meaningful value, and Collins’ deal also keeps Chicago flexible. That is a major change from the short-sighted roster-building Bulls fans have been frustrated with for years.Then Haize turns to Matas Buzelis’ potential Most Improved Player case. Matas is focused on getting stronger, has upgraded his nutrition with a chef, wants to attack the rim more, has interest in working with Deni Avdija, and has already worked with Dirk Nowitzki on shooting. If Buzelis gets a bigger role under Tiago Splitter, could he enter the 2027 MIP conversation?🔥 Topics include:Why ESPN’s Bulls offseason grade misses contextCaleb Wilson changing the direction of the rebuildNorman Powell, Nic Claxton, and Zach Collins as flexible veteran additionsBryson Graham’s first offseason gradeMatas Buzelis getting stronger entering Year 3Why Matas wants to attack the rim moreDeni Avdija as a developmental modelDirk Nowitzki helping Matas with shootingCan Matas Buzelis win Most Improved Player?Voicemails on Caleb, Matas, Noa Essengue, Dailyn Swain, Josh Giddey, and organic team-building🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bulls Rotation Battle: Who Gets Left Out In Tiago Splitter’s Crowded Young Core?
The Chicago Bulls suddenly have a real rotation problem — and that is a good thing.On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down why Patrick Williams, Rob Dillingham, Dailyn Swain, Leonard Miller, and Noa Essengue may all have legitimate NBA talent, but not all of them are guaranteed regular minutes under Tiago Splitter.With projected starters Josh Giddey, Norman Powell, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, and Nic Claxton, plus established bench candidates like Tre Jones, Isaac Okoro, Jalen Smith, and Zach Collins, the Bulls may only have one or two dependable rotation spots left unless Splitter consistently plays 11 deep.Haize explains why the battle will be decided by specific utility, not draft position, contract size, or theoretical upside. Patrick Williams must become a dependable 3-and-D forward. Rob Dillingham has to prove his shot creation outweighs his defensive concerns. Dailyn Swain needs to win minutes through defense, rebounding, and connective play. Leonard Miller must turn activity into a repeatable role. Noa Essengue likely needs Windy City reps before becoming a true rotation option.Plus, Haize reacts to Bill Simmons comparing Caleb Wilson to Tracy McGrady after Wilson’s monster Summer League run, and why Bulls fans should be excited while still keeping expectations grounded. Wilson averaged 23.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals, and 2.5 blocks while shooting 50% from the field and 41.9% from three.Also: Tre Jones gets called a Bulls hidden gem, and Haize explains why his steady playmaking, efficiency, and $8 million salary could matter more than fans realize.🔥 Topics include:Bulls training camp rotation battlePatrick Williams’ path to minutesRob Dillingham as the Bulls’ bench creatorDailyn Swain’s defensive pathwayLeonard Miller’s frontcourt logjamNoa Essengue’s Windy City development planTiago Splitter’s likely rotation philosophyBill Simmons’ Caleb Wilson/Tracy McGrady comparisonCaleb Wilson’s Summer League productionTre Jones as Chicago’s hidden gem🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Caleb Wilson’s Rookie Year Could Change EVERYTHING For The Bulls’ Rebuild
Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis are already putting in work — and that could matter more than Bulls fans realize.On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down why Wilson’s rookie season could become one of the biggest swing factors in the entire Bulls rebuild. After saying he was not taking time off after Summer League, Wilson was already back on the court in Chicago at a South Side Pro Run, where he was spotted building chemistry with Buzelis — including an alley-oop connection that should have Bulls fans excited for October.But the bigger question is this: Can Caleb Wilson show enough as a rookie to change how aggressive Bryson Graham needs to be next offseason?Haize breaks down the six things Wilson must prove: a potentially elite NBA trait, a respectable jumper, multiple frontcourt roles, improved decision-making, defense that translates beyond highlights, and functional fit next to Matas Buzelis and Josh Giddey.Plus, we look at the Bulls’ possible 2027 cap flexibility. Depending on team options for Norman Powell, Zach Collins and Tre Jones, Chicago could have anywhere from practical starter-level money to major flexibility in the $60–70 million range.Also: Dailyn Swain’s Summer League was rough, but his mindset after struggling as a de facto point guard should give Bulls fans a reason to avoid panic.🔥 Topics include:Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis building early chemistryWhy Wilson’s rookie year could change the Bulls’ rebuild timelineWhat Caleb must show to prove star upsideGreen-light, yellow-light and red-light rookie-year outcomesBulls 2027 cap space scenariosNorman Powell, Zach Collins and Tre Jones team-option decisionsWhat “aggressive” should actually mean for Bryson GrahamWhy Chicago needs a high-level perimeter creatorDailyn Swain’s rough Summer League and mature responseHow Swain can still earn trust under Tiago Splitter🎧 Tap in with Haize on Chicago Bulls Central for the full breakdown!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Did The East Pass The Bulls By? Matas Buzelis’ Truth & Caleb Wilson’s First Award
Did the Chicago Bulls improve enough to climb the Eastern Conference—or did the rest of the East improve even faster?On this episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize examines Chicago’s position after an offseason that added Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Norman Powell, Nic Claxton, and head coach Tiago Splitter.The Bulls are more athletic, more balanced and far more intriguing than last season’s 31-51 team, but the Eastern Conference has become a battlefield. The defending champion New York Knicks remain loaded, Miami added Giannis Antetokounmpo, Philadelphia acquired Jaylen Brown, Detroit improved its shooting, Atlanta added Lu Dort and Aaron Wiggins, and Indiana expects Tyrese Haliburton back.Where does that leave Chicago: a legitimate 40-win play-in threat or another development team stuck near the bottom?Haize also reacts to Matas Buzelis’ candid conversation with Lonzo Ball, including Ball’s claim that Billy Donovan placed Buzelis on a leash. Buzelis discussed learning the business side of the NBA, his desire to attack the rim more, possible offseason work with Deni Avdija and his effort to speed up his decision-making with Lithuania.Plus, Caleb Wilson earned All-Summer League First Team honors after averaging 23.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.5 blocks while shooting 41.9 percent from three. Is Rookie of the Year now a realistic expectation?🔥 Topics include:Matas Buzelis learning the NBA’s business realityLonzo Ball’s comments about Billy DonovanHow Tiago Splitter can unlock a more aggressive BuzelisBuzelis’ potential Year 3 leapCaleb Wilson’s All-Summer League First Team selectionWilson’s Rookie of the Year pathThe Bulls’ projected Eastern Conference tierWhy Chicago may still struggle with spacing and creationBulls high-end, realistic and low-end win projectionsDid the Eastern Conference improve faster than Chicago?🎧 Tap in with Haize for the full conversation on Chicago Bulls Central!Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
