Chicago Bulls undergo coaching changes and trade rumors

The Chicago Bulls are experiencing significant organizational shifts during the NBA offseason, involving both coaching staff updates and potential roster changes.

Following the appointment of Tiago Splitter as head coach, the Bulls' coaching staff has seen further departures. Assistant coach John Bryant is joining the Charlotte Hornets, and Austin Dufault, a former Summer League head coach, has moved to the Denver Nuggets as an assistant coach and vice president of player development.

On the roster front, trade rumors have linked the Bulls to Cleveland Cavaliers sharpshooter Max Strus. Analysts suggest that acquiring Strus could address Chicago’s lack of outside shooting, though his expiring contract would make him a ‘win-now’ addition rather than a long-term piece for the team’s rebuilding timeline.
