With the 2017 NBA Draft basically here, let’s take a deep look at who the Chicago Bulls should target and who they should avoid on Thursday night.

The 2017 NBA Draft is coming very fast, and once it passes, it’ll feel like the entire lead-up felt so short. But while we are still in the lead-up to the draft on Thursday, we all continue to make mock drafts, predictions, lists, etc., especially for the Chicago Bulls of course.

In this piece, I’ll take a look at pretty much what to expect and what not to expect from the corrupt front office of GarPax. The Bulls have met with many players and we know what their draft philosophy usually is: picking a junior/senior with experience, not too athletic and from a highly-touted program.

That doesn’t necessarily have to be the case this year. (Spoiler alert: It probably will be because Bulls.)

Anywho, let’s begin. Here are the five players the Bulls are most likely to avoid and the five players who the Chicago Bulls should target in the 2017 NBA Draft. I’d be surprised if any were taken in this first bunch of guys.
