Jalen Smith is a perfect fit for the Bulls. The exact player I thought the Bulls should target. I see huge potential in him that could really shine in Chicago. Great signing by the Bulls front office. – 9:35 AM

#Bulls new addition Jalen Smith was No. 10 overall pick in 2020, never got consistent playing time with Suns or Pacers, might have some untapped potential. Weren’t many bigs on market this summer. Now, will he be a starting center or backup with Bulls? – 9:35 AM
