- Chicago Bulls receive permission to interview five candidates — Timberwolves GM Matt Lloyd, Pistons VP Dennis Lindsey, Hawks VP Bryson Graham, Cavaliers GM Mike Gansey, and Spurs assistant GM Dave Telep — as reported by ESPN.
- Michael Reinsdorf says any candidate must support head coach Billy Donovan, making the coach’s tenure a non‑negotiable condition for the new hire.
- Interviews are slated to start this week, with the team targeting a decision just before or after the mid‑May draft combine.
- Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley were dismissed on April 6 after a six‑year tenure that produced only one playoff appearance, prompting the current search.
Why it matters: Chicago Bulls, after a six‑year stretch with just one playoff appearance, are racing to hire a new GM by the mid‑May draft combine, a move that will lift win totals and increase franchise value.
