The Chicago Bulls have a lot to be excited about this year. Adding DeMar DeRozan’s stable, veteran presence is guaranteed to reap massive benefits. Same with the signings of Alex Caruso and Lonzo Ball.
If the front office can just figure out Zach LaVine’s increasingly precarious contract situation, the future would be really bright in Chicago.
Unfortunately, it’s not all good news for Bulls fans.
This week, leaked photos emerged of the team’s new uniforms – and fans on social media weren’t feeling it.
Fans responded immediately:
Wtf is this

Trust me. This one’s much worse

This looks like a fake Bulls jersey😂😂😂

Those look like cheap dollar store jerseys

It’s obvious what look the powers that be were going for, but based on fan reaction, it feels like they didn’t quite nail it.
Fortunately, this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. The new Los Angeles Lakers jerseys got very mixed reviews and the Boston Celtics’ design was universally panned.
PJ Washington’s new girlfriend is making quite the impression. https://t.co/Seaq1IPDzo

Will fan backlash be taken into account in the case of these particular Bulls uniforms? Time will tell.
