Which of the lesser known players from the Chicago Bulls “The Last Dance” roster are ones that most fans completely forgot about since?

During the 1997-98 season, the Chicago Bulls were once again the most dominant team in the NBA. The door was starting to officially close on the dynasty years, though, as the team was starting to see its problems mount for what was to come in the immediate future. This would be the Bulls last run together as a title contender in the 1990’s.

The Bulls made some magical runs throughout the 1990’s, at least when all-time great shooting guard Michael Jordan was still on the team. Jordan had multiple retirements throughout his NBA career. The first would come when Jordan would try his hand with the Chicago White Sox minor league organization. His stint playing baseball would take him out for close to two full seasons.

Then the second retirement for Jordan would come after the 1998 title win for the Bulls. Jordan would retire from the NBA to take over in the Washington Wizards front office, but then he would play two more years in the nation’s capital before finally hanging them up for the last time. But Jordan’s tenure in the Wizards front office didn’t go too well.

Jordan drafted one of the biggest busts of the 2000’s, when he selected big man Kwame Brown with the first overall pick in the 2001 NBA Draft.

The poor tenure for Jordan in the Wizards front office doesn’t make what he did on the floor as an NBA player late in his career any less special. He did awesome things for the Bulls in the late 1990’s. And here’s a look at three of the teammates you forgot played with him during “The Last Dance” Chicago Bulls title run in 1998.
