The Chicago Bulls have been stuck in basketball purgatory for years now. It doesn't look like that's changing anytime soon.
According to The Athletic's John Hollinger, the Bulls had "a firm offer" at the trade deadline back in February to receive a first-round pick and take on future money in exchange for Ball. Instead, the Bulls signed Ball to a two-year contract extension worth $20 million to keep him on the roster in 2025-26 with a team option for 2026-27.
