Chicago Bulls: 3 free agent targets worth overpaying for

With the upcoming cycle of free agency charging fast for the Chicago Bulls, there’s not much time left to get prepared for what lies ahead later this summer. The Bulls have various positional needs to fill, as this team will be one of the more heavily scrutinized during the remainder of their offseason. Not only do the Bulls have various positional needs to fill this summer, they also need to figure out how to piece together the rest of this newfound budding core.

At the moment, it looks like the Bulls are building around a core trio of star shooting guard Zach LaVine, center Nikola Vucevic, and rookie forward Patrick Williams. But if the Bulls catch some luck and make the right moves this summer, then they could get a key fourth place to really get them over the postseason hump heading into next season.
