Join the CHGO Bulls crew for a LIVE watchalong of the 2025 NBA Draft. Matt Peck, Big Dave Watson, Will Gottlieb, and Will Perdue analyze picks from all 30 teams, including the Chicago Bulls. As target names slowly came off the Bulls big board – including Collin Murray-Boyles at 9, Khaman Maluach at 10 and Cedric Coward at 11 – the Bulls selected the young Frenchman Noa Essengue with the 12th overall pick. Did Arturas Karnisovas miss an easy layup with Derik Queen still on the board? Is Essengue another player who fits the “AK mold” of young and athletic, but a very raw project talent-wise? The guys react to the pick and what it means for the Bulls moving forward, while watching the rest of the first round unfold.
