No extremely pivotal names from the current Chicago Bulls roster are set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason, but some could be replaceable.
Entering the 2020 offseason, the hope was that the Chicago Bulls would be able to successfully make fairly dramatic alterations to the roster construction and coaching staff. It all started out with ownership making significant changes to the front office personnel back in April. The Bulls started out specifically by replacing the vice president of basketball operations John Paxson with former Denver Nuggets general manager Arturas Karnisovas as the lead voice in the front office.
The official title for Karnisovas with the Bulls will be executive VP of basketball operations.
After bringing aboard Karnisovas as the lead voice in the front office, ex-Philadelphia 76ers VP of player personnel Marc Eversley was hired to replace Gar Forman as the Bulls next general manager. In general, there was a lot of excitement surrounding both the immediate and long-term impact that was thought that Karnisovas and Eversley could bring for this Bulls rebuild heading into its fourth year.
But since they were hired more than three months ago, there is an underwhelming amount of other tangible changes or discussions to do so within the organization. The coaching staff has largely remained the same, and current head coach Jim Boylen might actually be back next season in the same position.
If nothing else, the new front office group should be able to alter the roster construction in a positive enough sense to move the rebuild forward next season. Here’s a look into three of the most replaceable players currently on the Bulls roster that could be a piece used to alter the 15-man roster next season.
