Not that it would really do anything as he'd never crack the rotation, but Javon Freeman-Liberty has been balling in summer league. Would be wise for the Bulls to keep him on their GLeague team at the very least, but he might be deserving a two way, especially now that Marko is booted.

3/21 is an overpay for Ayo. He hasn't been good since the first half of his rookie year. While i hope he can turn it around and make it a value contract, this front office is really tripling down on this mediocre team. I'm dreading that DeRozan extension and the 100m contract for Pat.

I like Ayo as starting PG and Coby White leading the bench mob and being a Jerry Stackhouse/Ben Gordon type spark plug whenever points are needed.

Ball would be better but this dream has burned in fiery crash.

You're forgetting we signed Jevon Carter. It's a question as to where Ayo is even going to get minutes from. I'm guessing Carsuo will be gone, who ironically is our most valuable player on the floor.

I would argue, that besides the obvious names, Coby, Carter, Terry, and even Green (is he coming back?) all deserve minutes over Ayo.

Pretty sure we're just going to play 5 guards at once.

Duh.

Just to list it out, the two way contracts for this year are:

Justin Lewis
Adama Sanogo
Onuralp Bitim

Bulls summer league stud Javon Freeman Liberty has signed a two way with the Raptors, so I'll personally be waiting on him to become to the next GLeague success story now that he's left the Bulls.

Carlik Jones is technically a standard contract now I believe, but fully non guaranteed. Terry Taylor is also on a qualifying offer for a two way contract.

Two way contracts don't count towards the overall cap

All of these names are likely never going to be mentioned during the season anyway

Bulls have 3.4M until they hit the luxury tax

I'm a little excited for Bitim based on highlights. He could be the next undrafted sleeper.

Vuc or Drummond depending on which site you look at, listed at 6'10 or 6'11. Bulls only have like 3 players taller than 6'7

Is there a Bulls Season thread? Didn't see it.

Anyway, no extension for Patrick Williams. He wanted $20M, apparently.

Patrick Williams and Justin Fields are the same person.
