With only 14 games left in the regular season, the Chicago Bulls don’t have many chances to reach .500 this season. However, as All-Star center Nikola Vucevic shared, they’ll keep pushing for it. Vooch acknowledged that their dismal play at the start of the season put them right behind the eight ball. Although the Bulls have made their way to ninth in the Eastern Conference standings, they have yet to reach the .500 mark since they were 2-2 earlier this season.

Dug themselves a deep hole

After getting to 2-2, the Bulls took a downward spiral, losing 12 of their next 15 games to notch a 5-14 record at the end of November. Things went from bad to worse not long after that, as All-Star wingman Zach LaVine missed all their games in December due to foot inflammation. Fortunately for Chicago, Coby White hit his stride, and they managed to turn things around. Currently, the Bulls hold a 33-35 record following their 127-98 win over the Washington Wizards.
