With the No. 4 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, the Bulls selected Caleb Wilson, a prospect whose preseason tape suggested a ready-made contributor. The team followed that selection with Dailyn Swain at No. 15, a first-round talent whose Summer League struggles underscored the developmental work ahead but still represented a high-upside asset.

Rodman Calls LeBron the Easiest Player to Guard

Dennis Rodman took the stage at the 2026 Fanatics Fest in New York City and answered a blunt question about defending LeBron James. The five-time NBA champion declared, “LeBron’s probably the easiest guy I’d ever guard in my life. I ain’t lying. He’s the easiest guy I could guard. Only thing he has over me is probably his size. He’s 6-foot-10, I’m 6-foot-6, and stuff like that. But that don’t mean anything. I’ll make him go left all day long. I’ll make him shoot them damn jump shots, which he ain’t worth for sh*t.”
