Eric Bledsoe Would Improve The Bulls’ Defense

The Chicago Bulls currently have the fourth worst defense in the NBA and they will need to address that moving forward if they hope to contend for the playoffs this season.

The Bulls could snag a point guard who thrives on defense if they land Eric Bledsoe and the team should look to do so. Coby White is not a productive contributor on that end and the departure of Kris Dunn has left a void in the defensive stopper department at the point guard position.

Chicago struggles in the steal department and Eric Bledsoe joining the team could help generate more pressure on opposing point guards. Bledsoe is a great defender who always sticks himself in situations to help create extra possessions for his team.

The Bulls need a tone setter on the defensive side of the court if they hope to be successful, and Eric Bledsoe could be that guy. Bledsoe has the ability to help the Bulls shoot up the leaderboards and be a top 15 defense in the NBA.
