5 NBA legends you forgot played for the Chicago Bulls

The Chicago Bulls have a long history of championship basketball, which drew some legends to join the team. Which legends had forgettable stints in Chicago?

The Chicago Bulls are one of the most iconic franchises in the history of the NBA because of one run. When Michael Jordan was running the league and the Bulls were winners of six championships, everyone wanted a piece. The legends who were looking for a title late in their careers knew going to Chicago was key to making that happen in the mid-to-late 90s.

The Bulls are one of the most legendary teams in NBA history, but that doesn’t mean every legend who went there made a huge impact. Players like Dennis Rodman went to Chicago and made a huge difference, but others went there and made little-to-no impact.

Either way, all these legends made a little time in their careers to play for the Chicago Bulls. A lot of these players made the Hall of Fame, but their time in Chigaco is but a footnote on their plaques.

Some of these players might even have Chicago Bulls rings sitting in their trophy case right now, and a lot of us would be none the wiser. They latched on to a championship-caliber team similar to how Gary Payton finally got his championship with the Miami Heat in 2006. These players have to take roles they are not used to, but they provide a service to the team in the form of veteran leadership and helping the young guys become stars. It’s like having a coach who can also throw a few minutes on the court.

But which legends surprised us the most? These five players had us taking our jaws off the floor when we found out they played for the Chicago Bulls.
