Through the first 10 games of the regular season, the Chicago Bulls are off to a tremendous start. Following a very impressive 118-95 win over superstar forward Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets at home at the United Center on the night of Nov. 8, the Bulls are looking to keep making their way up the Eastern Conference standings. It was big for the Bulls to get this win over the Nets to snap a two-game losing skid too.

Second-year head coach Billy Donovan and the Bulls lost two straight to the Philadelphia 76ers leading into the Nov. 8 matchup against the Nets.

Chicago Bulls looking up this season, but there are former players that are missed for this team

Ahead of this meeting with the Nets, there were some brewing concerns for this Bulls rotation. Struggles for Bulls players such as star center Nikola Vucevic and a potential regular season-ending injury to forward Patrick Williams brought about some new depth concerns. Defensively, it looked like the Bulls might be missing some key pieces too since Williams came up injured.

All in all, we can’t fault the front office for building out the team the way they did to any degree. That doesn’t mean that there are some former Bulls players that we look back at and see value in them hypothetically still playing for this team. Some former Bulls players are succeeding elsewhere around the NBA that would be nice to have back in the fold.

Here’s a look at three former Bulls players succeeding elsewhere that the team should be missing.
