The Chicago Bulls have made the playoffs just once in the last six years, but they could be paying the luxury tax if they bring back all of their key pieces in free agency. Nikola Vucevic, Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, and Patrick Beverley all need new contracts to return as Chicago sits just 39.7 million under the tax. There is zero way they re-sign all four without paying next season.
Rumors suggest the Bulls will re-sign Vucevic in attempt to keep their core together, despite playing just five playoff games since building it. Is bringing him back a mistake?
