The Bulls didn't wait around.

Chicago has fired executive vice president Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley, according to ESPN. The move signals a full reset in the front office after another disappointing season.
This was coming. Karnisovas took over basketball operations in 2020, but the results never matched expectations. The Bulls went 224-254 during his tenure, made just one playoff appearance, and have now missed the postseason four straight years.
That's not going to cut it in Chicago. The bigger issue was direction.
The roster never fully made sense. The team hovered in the middle. Not rebuilding. Not contending. Just stuck. And eventually, that catches up to you.
Team president Michael Reinsdorf made the call. Now the focus shifts to what's next.
This isn't just a tweak. It's a clean slate: new leadership, new vision, and likely a new approach to roster building.
One thing that isn't expected to change, at least for now, is the head coach.
Billy Donovan is still expected to remain in place after signing a multiyear extension. The Bulls valued stability there, even as everything else around him shifts.
So here we are. Front office gone. Direction reset.
And finally, a chance for the Bulls to pick an NBA lane and commit to it.
