What could be the final signing of this round of free agency for the Chicago Bulls ahead of the start of Training Camp arrived in the form of the former Los Angeles Clippers big man Daniel Oturu. Signing Oturu to the Training Camp roster likely means that the Bulls are mostly done in free agency.

But there’s still the chance that the Bulls try to go outside the players on the current roster to fill the final remaining two-way contract slot. The other two-way contract slot is filled by the second-year former Kansas Jayhawks point guard Devon Dotson.

After signing Oturu, the Bulls now have 19 players on the camp roster. With former Villanova Wildcats point guard Ryan Arcidiacono getting signed to a camp deal with the Boston Celtics last week, the Bulls roster looks a lot different than it did at the outset of last season.

Where the Chicago Bulls look next after signing Daniel Oturu?

Beyond Oturu, some of the key signings for the Bulls among the players on non-guaranteed/minimum deals include power forward Alize Johnson, small forward Stanley Johnson, combo guard Ethan Thompson, and forward Tyler Cook. There’s a good number of newer faces for the Bulls heading into Training Camp and the preseason.

Yet, with some injuries piling up and the aggressive attitude that the front office is taking to building out this bench heading into next season, it wouldn’t be out of the question to see one more free agent added to the mix. And the players available at this point of the offseason that would be attractive to the Bulls are the ones that mostly were recently waived.

With that in mind, here’s a look into who the final free agent signing of the offseason could be for the Bulls.
