Chicago Bulls: 3 former Florida Gators to acquire this summer

Heading into this offseason, the goal for the Chicago Bulls originally looked to be upgrading the rotation as a whole to provide a better supporting cast, while landing a point guard of the future. The front office made it pretty clear up to this point that the Bulls aren’t going to role with Coby White or Tomas Satoransky as their point guard of the future.

Also, finding the right fit for building this team out around head coach Billy Donovan will help to ensure that his tenure with the Bulls is as successful as it could be. The Bulls had marked improvement in Donovan’s first year as head coach, but he still left something to be desired.

Ending the four-year-long postseason drought will be one of the top goals for Donovan and the Bulls heading into next season. The current roster at hand should realistically be enough to at least get a spot in the play-in tournament, if not better, for the Bulls. But ensuring that this roster is ready to reach contender status in the next two or three years could be vital.

What’s the right fit for the Chicago Bulls and Billy Donovan this summer?

Knowing which players are the right fit with Donovan and the Bulls will be a tough feat. But one source for executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley could be to turn to his former players with the Oklahoma City Thunder, and even some former Florida Gators players.

Donovan was a Florida men’s hoops and Thunder head coach prior to landing this job with the Bulls. Here’s a look into three former Gators players that could be offseason targets for Donovan and the Bulls this summer.
