CHGO Bulls Podcast: Why Did the Bulls do Nothing in the First Hours of Free Agency?

The CHGO Bulls crew go live one hour into NBA free agency to react to players around the league agreeing to deals while the Bulls sat idle and made no deals. With Kevin Durant requesting a trade out of Brooklyn just hours before the free agency window opened, teams around the league still wasted no time in making other deals. But not the Bulls.

Potential mid-level targets like Isaiah Hartenstein, Mo Bamba, Amir Coffey, PJ Tucker, Thad Young, Chris Boucher and others fell off the free agent board in the opening minutes. Matt, Big Dave, Will and Mark discuss why the Bulls were silent – not even announcing a new contract for Zach LaVine – as free agency began. Is there a chance that Bulls ownership has told the front office the luxury tax is not in play next season, and did that have an impact on their lack of action?

The guys also discuss players who still haven’t committed and could be on the Bulls’ radar.
