JULIAN PHILLIPS JUST HAD A MUST-SEE POSTER DUNK!

For the second straight game, rookie Julian Phillips rattled the rim.

The No. 35 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft found himself with the ball in his hands during a crucial possession in the 4th quarter. With the Chicago Bulls trying to hold onto a 107-103 lead, Phillips took the Terry Taylor handoff and broke toward the rim. Before we knew it, the forward was throwing down a ferocious poster over center Jay Huff.

Watch it … and then watch it a million more times …

To be sure, the 19-year-old will have an uphill battle when it comes to earning playing time. But he’s still quickly showing Chicago Bulls fans why the organization traded into the draft to snag him. He was one of the best pure athletes in the 2023 class, and that’s been on full display over the first two preseason games.
