3 current Chicago Bulls most likely to be Hall-of-Famers

Big news arrived for some notable former members of the Chicago Bulls. Two former Bulls players got word this weekend that they would be part of the 2021 Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame class. These two former Bulls inductees in the Hall of Fame class of 2021 are center Ben Wallace and forward Toni Kukoc.

The latter of those two had a much lengthier career with the Bulls but looked to be less of a lock for the Hall-of-Fame than the former. Wallace only played for the Bulls for just under two seasons. He was solid for them, especially on the defensive end of the floor, but none of his four career All-Star selections came while he played in Chicago.

Although, Wallace was a four-time All-Star selection, four-time Defensive Player of the Year, six-time All-Defensive Team selection, 2004 NBA Champion, two-time rebounding champ, one-time blocks champ, and a five-time All-NBA Team selection. Meanwhile, Kukoc never got a single All-Star selection to go along with one Sixth Man of the Year award and three NBA Titles.

Who could be up next for the Chicago Bulls now?

The last thing that is likely on the minds of most Bulls fans at the moment is the idea of which of the players on the current roster could be Hall-of-Famers when it’s all said and done. But with a newfound direction under a new front office and coaching staff, there could be more hope for the Bulls to find their way back to the point of title contenders in the near future.

The Bulls do have more reason for optimism moving forward, as they’re about to take part in the last game of the 2020-21 regular season against the divisional foe Milwaukee Bucks on May 16.

Here’s a look at three current Bulls that are most likely to be Hall-of-Famers.
