Joe Cowley covers the Chicago Bulls for the Chicago Sun-Times.

Bulls PR confirmed an ESPN report Saturday that Unseld Jr. was set to join the coaching staff. Expect the search to fill one more vacancy to continue as Billy Donovan adds big names to sit next to him.
The Bulls and executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas might not be able to get rid of LaVine’s max contract with a trade this offseason, but it won’t be from a lack of trying.
Eversley is no stranger to being in the rumor mill for a promotion with another organization, and now the Pistons have entered the picture.
Joe Cowley’s first draft forecast looks at lottery winners and losers, and whom the Bulls should take at No. 11.
In the NBA Draft Lottery, the Bulls came into Sunday with a 77.6% chance to stay at No. 11, and that’s exactly how the balls bounced. The Atlanta Hawks will have the top pick.
DeRozan might be as important for the Bulls off the court as he is on it. As the sides try to agree on an extension, DeRozan has to ask himself if he wants to stay a Bull.
Ball exercised the $21.4 million player option for next season. The hope is that he can overcome three left knee surgeries since 2022 and be available by fall camp.
Another season of disappointment finally has executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas bagging “continuity” and looking to make bigger swings this summer. While trading Zach LaVine is priority number one, Vucevic is also expected to be shopped.
The veteran guard made a huge impact on both ends of the floor, becoming the second Bull to win the award.
