## Resource

On today’s show, CHGO Bulls is looking ahead to the big men in the 2026 Draft. With two picks in the top 15, the Bulls have a real opportunity to draft a center and lock down their five-man of the future. Will Gottlieb brings in guest Alex Nesnidal to break down Aday Mara, Hannes Steinbach, Jayden Quaintance, Morez Johnson and Chris Cenac Jr. who could all be in play at both 9 and 15. They also examine Henri Veesaar, Tarris Reed, Luigi Suigo and others that could potentially fall to 38. What type of big should the Bulls prioritize? What strengths and weaknesses are worth the risk-reward? What should the strategy be around one of the most important positions moving forward?
