## Resource

The Bulls are embracing a new defensive-first identity under head coach Tiago Splitter and exec VP Bryson Graham, putting pressure on backcourt stars Josh Giddey and Norman Powell to elevate their defense while leveraging Giddey’s passing and rebounding prowess. With Tre Jones as a reliable reserve and rookies like Dailyn Swain needing to prove themselves, the team’s success hinges on how well its players adapt to Splitter’s blend of physicality, ball movement, and disciplined defense — making the backcourt’s evolution the season’s biggest storyline.
