The CHGO Bulls crew is LIVE from Las Vegas, breaking down the Chicago Bulls 116-72 loss to the Toronto Raptors in their NBA Summer League debut. Noa Essengue, the Bulls 12th overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, struggled in his first game. He scored just five points while committing seven turnovers. Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb discuss just how “raw” of a talent Essengue is. Plus, Matas Buzelis didn’t have the most efficient night, but did attack aggressively with a perfect 7-7 mark at the free throw line. The guys also give first impressions of second round pick Lachlan Olbrich, and look ahead to the matchup with the Sacramento Kings.
