There’s nothing the Chicago Bulls organization loves more than bringing home one of its own. That’s exactly what they did 34 minutes into Friday’s free agency period, signing former Milwaukee Buck and Proviso East product Jevon Carter, 27, to a three-year, $20 million deal. https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1674909197438164993 I have to say, this was much better news than I anticipated from the Bulls…
The Chicago Bulls are taking care of their own. Rather than testing his market as a restricted free agent, Coby White signed a $40 million deal to stay with the team that drafted him for the next three years. First reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic at three years, $33 million, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski shortly followed up with three…
The first domino has fallen. The Chicago Bulls and Nikola Vucevic have agreed to a three-year, $60 million extension, locking the former All-Star center up through his age 35 season. https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1674140663733010434 Details as to whether either party has an option or if the contract is fully guaranteed have yet to be released.

After the end of the 2023 NBA Draft, VP of Basketball Operations Arturas Karnisovas and GM Marc Eversley addressed media to discuss their buying into the second round of the draft and the path forward.

Early in the second round, the Bulls swung a deal with the Washington Wizards to secure the 35th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, which they used to take freshman forward Julian Phillips, 19, from Tennessee. The Bulls reportedly send “a couple” of second round picks to Washington. The earliest second they can trade is 2027. “Our group liked him,”…
Michael Jordan just sold the Charlotte Hornets for $3 billion, which means he will soon have plenty of spare time and money on his hands. The Athletic’s Jon Greenberg believes he and his former team would be a good fit, but is that really a good idea? Kevin Kaduk, Mark Carman and Lawrence Benedetto are joined by Chris Hrabe to…
The writing is on the wall for the Chicago Bulls. The only way out of this mess is via trade. The Bulls were the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference last season. They missed the playoffs. Two of their three best players are in their mid-30s. They have no cap space and no picks in Thursday night’s NBA Draft. And…

The week between the Finals and the Draft is my favorite. It’s slop season and the Bulls finally seem to be generating some buzz with Zach LaVine trade rumors swirling. Despite the presumed path forward being continuity, the Bulls are gauging interest in LaVine on the trade market, according to Yahoo’s Jake Fischer. It’s the Chicago Bulls who have started contacting teams,…
The Chicago Bulls and unrestricted free agent center Nikola Vucevic have reportedly started contract extension talks, according to Sham Charania of The Athletic. This news is not surprising. For several reasons. The Bulls traded for Vucevic in 2021 with the understanding he would become a free agent following the 2022-23 season. Given the assets they traded to acquire him, it…
