UNC's Caleb Wilson Already Saying Perfect Things for Chicago Bulls

North Carolina fans have to be very happy seeing what Caleb Wilson is doing in the NBA. The young man, despite dealing with some injuries a year ago at Carolina, was among the best players in all of college basketball. It was a very impressive freshman year for the five-star prospect, and he's proving in the NBA why many loved him as much as they did at North Carolina. 

Wilson is not only an elite talent, but he also says all the right things off the court. He is certainly a young man who has a bright future and the right head on his shoulders.

We have to give him a lot of credit for what he's able to do on both sides of the basketball, but there's also something to be said about just being a good person. As for how Wilson is playing this year with the Bulls, he's continued to show why he has a shot at the Rookie of the Year Award. 

While it's only been five games in his career, he's averaging 20.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.8 steals, and 1.4 blocks per game. There are still some things he's going to have to work on, especially that three-point shot, but the fact that he's taking at least five per game throughout these first five contests is a very good sign that he's trying to work on them. 

This isn't a kid who isn't going to try to work on his game, which is perhaps the most important part of this all.

As for what Wilson wants to accomplish in the NBA, he's been on record many times now saying his biggest focus is winning in Chicago. Recently speaking to reporters about some other things he wants Bulls fans to know about him, he's showing why he's going to fit in perfectly with the organization.

"Number one, Green Bay sucks," Wilson said, per Tar Heels Wire. "Number two, we're going to get some good wins and eventually, you guys will think the Chicago Bulls are fire again, if you don't think so already. Number three, I don't like ketchup on my hot dogs anymore. And number four, it's a great day to be in Chicago. That's pretty much it."

If there's one guy I trust in the NBA to help his team improve over the next couple of years, it's a guy like Wilson. 

Over the past year or so, he's shown us he takes things like this very seriously and takes a ton of pride in being the best day in and day out. Of course, there's no guarantee that it's going to happen as easily as he might make it seem sometimes, but Wilson is going to do whatever he can to put himself and his team in a position to win.
