Dailyn Swain — Year 1 — Texas https://t.co/rTHC9sY2JP Via @chicagobulls on X

What happened: Chicago lists Dailyn Swain as a Year 1 wing out of Texas. Texas coach Sean Miller tied Swain's rise to No. 15 to the Longhorns' Sweet 16 run. He closed preseason with a two-hand finish and a buzzer-beating steal.

Why it matters: Chicago added Swain at No. 15 to restock its wing rotation entering 2026-27. Preseason flashes put his early defensive assignments in focus. His minutes will show where he sits in the opening rotation.

By the numbers: No. 5 with Chicago.

What to watch: Watch his minutes and matchup work in Wednesday's debut.
