Brandon Paul set for 2nd Bulls workout

The Bulls select in the first round at No. 20 overall and in the second round at No. 49 overall.

According to a league source, Paul has the potential to be drafted in the second round because of his shooting ability.

"The draft is right around the NBA Finals, and if you're a wing player and not a shooter in the last couple of years, it's been hard to get on the floor in the NBA Finals unless you're someone like Tony Allen or a defensive freak," the source said.
