Patrick Williams linked to Thunder, Raptors and Hornets in free agency
The Bulls had been communicating with rival teams a desire to reshape their roster, league sources told Yahoo Sports, and Artūras Karnišovas’ front office indeed struck a deal that brings the first player back to Chicago via trade in three years. Word of the Bulls’ interest in Giddey had filtered to opposing front offices throughout this past week. Although many executives from opposing teams believed that was a potential construct for a Patrick Williams sign-and-trade — the fourth-year forward is set to reach restricted free agency June 30, with OKC, Toronto and Charlotte already being mentioned by league personnel as possible landing spots for Williams outside of Chicago.Source: Yahoo!

What’s the buzz on Twitter?

I wish I was more excited about the idea of Patrick Williams. A Charlotte native, young, good size and shot it at a good percentage. On paper he’s the prefect reclamation project, but I can’t say he’s ever passed the eye test for me. Could be worth a swing if Bridges left – 4:43 PM

How good is Patrick Williams and what is he worth? I went deep on what his new contract should be and what I would do if I were the Bulls:

More on this storyline
If the Bulls have seen enough of the Patrick Williams experiment, one team that has great interest, a league source said, is Oklahoma City. The Thunder need more size, and they have an army of draft picks that can sweeten the pot for the Bulls if a sign-and-trade emerges in July. -via New York Times / June 4, 2024
KC Johnson: Artūras Karnišovas said the team hopes to re-sign Patrick Williams. Artūras Karnišovas didn’t bite much on a question on whether Billy Donovan’s staff would remain the same. Said conversations would occur on that in near future. -via Twitter @KCJHoop / April 20, 2024
