Chicago Bulls: 5 underrated free agent targets to watch down the stretch

The Chicago Bulls aren’t all that far out from taking on the next cycle of free agency. And there’s sure to be a lot of change on the horizon for the Bulls with some of the struggles and the change that has already taken place within the past year. First-year head coach Billy Donovan and the Bulls haven’t found any sort of sustained success over the course of a span of time any longer than a couple of weeks so far this season.

This leaves executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley will nothing left to do but try and give Donovan the best resources to find more success in the win column. But most of those moves are likely going to have to wait until the offseason to act upon.

Following a tough loss to former Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau and the New York Knicks on the road at Madison Square Garden on the night of April 28, Chicago now carries a record of 26-36. The Bulls have had trouble getting any sort of traction in the win column since the trade deadline.

Any solves that the Chicago Bulls front office can find would help

Looking ahead to the offseason, it feels like change is almost guaranteed in terms of future alterations to the roster construction. Karnisovas and Eversley remained mostly quiet on the trade and free agent market last offseason since there wasn’t much out there for them to pursue. But with a better understanding now of what the roster needs and a fruitful free agent class ahead, that is likely to shift this summer.

Finding what free agents could potentially fit best with this team is a major looming task for the new front office regime down the stretch. Here’s a look into five underrated potential free agent targets to watch for this offseason down the stretch.
