Bulls Draft Taj Gibson at 26th
June 25th, 2009 by Andrew WamboldtThe Chicago Bulls selected Taj Gibson, a 6′10″ 214 pound, power forward from USC.
Gibson was listed on some mock draft sites as the Bulls pick at 26. The Bulls passed on Dejuan Blair, who has been falling down the draft board, to select Gibson.
Gibson averaged 14.3 points, 9 rebounds, and 2.9 blocks as a junior last year at USC.
This is not a very good pick, in my opinion. I thought the Bulls should have taken DeMarre Carroll, or Dejuan Blair here when he began slipping. I don’t think Gibson will amount to anything in the NBA.
