The 1997-1998 Chicago Bulls will soon be the focus of the sports world as the highly-anticipated documentary, “The Last Dance”<\/a>, is set to premiere on April 19 on ESPN. Originally scheduled for June, the 10-part documentary, which follows the Bulls' sixth and final championship run of the 1990s, was moved up after fans pleaded for its release when the sports world was shut down due to the COVID-19 outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's hard to know exactly how “The Last Dance” will play out. Obviously, we know that the 1997-1998 season ended with the Bulls beating the Utah Jazz for the NBA title but watching the journey will be incredible. With a unique cast of characters and so many storylines to sift through, it's bound to be amazing. But in looking back on that season in preparation for next week's premiere, I came across something I'd completely forgotten about, something that played into things on more than one occasion that season: the health of Scottie Pippen<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scottie Pippen missed the first 35 games for the Chicago Bulls during ‘The Last Dance' season of 1997-1998<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
