Chicago Bulls: Ranking former player’s free agency landing spots

Free agency struck fast and furious in the NBA this year, and the Chicago Bulls had a lot of former standouts moving around.

The Chicago Bulls saw a lot of prominent former members of the team land in interesting spots in the first 24 hours of this crazy cycle of free agency. None of the landing spots among former Bulls made top headlines on June 30, in the evening of craziness that ensued to cap the weekend.

The Bulls watched former players from last season’s roster like center Robin Lopez and power forward Bobby Portis land in other places. But there were also former stars of this team, and veteran role players, from yesteryear that went under the radar early in this free agency cycle.

Moves that highlighted former Bulls way in the past included point guard Derrick Rose, power forward Taj Gibson, and center Joakim Noah all on the move. We’ll jump into the teams that each of those well-recognized former Bulls landed with later on in this piece.

But it is worth noting that a few former Bulls didn’t land anywhere yet, but the bulk look to be set in stone. There was just so much chaos in the first hour of free agency this offseason that teams started to scramble to lock down any pieces they felt like they needed. That’s why a player like D-Rose was scooped up so fast instead of teams taking that process patiently.

Here’s a look into the definitive ranking of the free agency landing spots for every prominent former player of the Chicago Bulls this year.
