Caleb Wilson is showing a concerning tendency just six games into his NBA career, but the Bulls shouldn't be in a hurry to change it.

Writer Andrew Hanlon argues that Chicago Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson has taken on too much personal responsibility for the rebuilding team's early-season struggles. Despite being just six games into his NBA career, the 20-year-old forward has publicly blamed himself for Chicago's losses and insisted on shouldering the burden of turning the franchise around.
Hanlon notes that while Wilson's accountability is admirable, experienced teammates such as Matas Buzelis, Norman Powell, Josh Giddey, and Buddy Hield must share the leadership load. Across his first six games, Wilson has impressed individually, including a 30-point, 14-rebound performance against the Washington Wizards.
