COLORS KEY | FULL BULLS OUTLOOK

The 21-year-old guard out of North Carolina has shown that he has the potential to become one of the league’s top playmaking guards in the future. With his offensive skills combined with Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic, Chicago has a potentially dangerous big three on their hands. Averaging 19.5 points per game over his last six outings, White has shown he can be an efficient scorer in this league, and can step up when LaVine is unable to play.

Paired with veteran coach Billy Donovan, White has the skills to be a household name in the NBA someday. With proven All-Stars on his team, he has every opportunity to get more open looks and blossom into a young star. If White can produce similar numbers as he did against Miami on a consistent basis, there is no reason to doubt that Chicago will have a formidable big three in the near future.
