Chicago Bulls should target these guards in 2022 NBA DraftRyan Heckmanon May 23, 2022 at 11:00 am

On June 23, the draft takes place and these Bulls will hold the no. 18 overall pick in the first round. Without a second-round pick, this sole selection is a crucial one for a team that may need to add a key reserve to their bench.

The Bulls could have a few different options at that pick, and might end up going with a big man if the right one falls. Many would love to see the Bulls snag a backup big with this pick at no. 18.

However, another position of need for the Bulls could end up being at guard. The Bulls might be able to use another guard who could play either point or two guard.

At pick no. 18, the Chicago Bulls could add a talented guard who would become a key part of the rotation.

One of the questions some fans are asking this offseason is whether or not the Bulls should hold onto Coby White. After watching him disappear in the postseason, there are a lot of fans who would like to see White moved.

However, because of his poor play in the postseason, White’s trade value is going to be at its lowest point.

Even if the Bulls don’t get a ton in return, trading White should be an option. The Bulls need more consistency from their backup guards than what White provided them this season. Chicago needs a guard who can play defense, first and foremost, but also give them another shooter off the bench.

Once we get out of the top eight or nine picks, this draft is going to get interesting and could see several names get called at different positions. But, when the Bulls are on the clock at no. 18 overall, one of the following guards would be excellent options.
