Chicago Bulls send big message to Billy Donovan amid UNC news
After the failed Jaden Ivey trade, the Chicago Bulls were headed for the crossroads at the end of the season.
More News: Likely Chicago Bulls replacement for Billy Donovan identified
Per Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, Bulls head coach Billy Donovan was making it clear to ownership that Jerry Reinsdorf had a decision to make.
Chicago would have to decide between Donovan choosing to return or moving on from executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley. Amid questions about Donovan’s future with the team, it appeared Donovan was a leading candidate for the North Carolina job.
On Monday, things took a drastic turn in both areas.
UNC hired former Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone as its next head coach, per multiple reports. Malone won the 2023 NBA Finals with the Nuggets.
With the Tar Heels no longer an option, the Bulls quickly made a decision on their front office, firing Karnisovas and Eversley.
Does that mean Donovan will return as the head coach for Chicago next season?
Not necessarily.
Chicago Bulls sent a message to Billy Donovan
Cowley noted that Donovan could make a pivot much like Brad Stevens did in 2021 with the Boston Celtics. Donovan could decide to take a job in the front office to help Chicago manage its rebuild while the team hires another head coach to develop the roster.
Bulls assistant coach Wes Unseld Jr. could be in line for a promotion if Donovan leaves for the front office.
The timing of the firing for Karnisovas and Eversley is key here. The Bulls fired both just hours after reports surfaced that UNC was hiring Malone.
The Bulls sent a clear message to Donovan that they were making the necessary moves to keep him with the organization after the conclusion of the NBA regular season.
Now it’s up to Donovan to decide how the Basketball Hall of Fame coach wants to proceed with Chicago.
