2. Jevon Carter
Jevon Carter, like Graham, was a 4-year college player. Carter played his collegiate basketball for West Virginia where during his senior year, he averaged an impressive 17.3 points, 6.6 assists and 3.0 steals per game.
Carter was drafted 32nd overall by the Memphis Grizzlies. While the Grizzlies are a natural fit for a guy like Carter, there were likely many teams that wanted a guy like him on their roster.
While Carter’s offensive game is nice (roughly 17 points and 7 assists per game is impressive), it’s his defense that makes him special. He’s an absolute menace to opposing guards.

Carter struggled a little during Summer League but still made his presence felt on defense. It’s well known that most of the Bulls offseason decisions were made with offense as the focus, putting defense on the back burner.
Sure, Kris Dunn is an elite defender but the same can’t be said about Zach LaVine or Jabari Parker. Jevon Carter wouldn’t be a starter on the Bulls but bringing him off the bench, and maybe pairing him at times with Kris Dunn, would really help improve the Bulls’ poor defense.
