Role
Essengue is a developmental forward the Bulls are bringing along slowly. The 12th overall pick in 2025 appeared in just two NBA games as a rookie. At 6-8 with real mobility, the bet is on what he becomes, not what he is yet.
How he got here
Chicago drafted Essengue 12th overall in 2025 out of Ratiopharm Ulm in Germany. He wears No. 2 for the Bulls.
