The time of waiving players to avoid paying them is upon us in the NBA, and RJ Hunter is unfortunately one of the first victims.
Hunter bounced back-and-forth between the Bulls and the new Windy City Bulls during his time in Chicago and didn’t really gain any substantial momentum and/or playing time with either team.
The former Boston Celtic-turned-Chicago Bull was waived on Thursday morning, as announced officially by the team.
Hunter’s tenure in Chicago was short lived to say the least. The Bulls picked him up after he was cut from the Boston Celtics roster at the beginning of the season, but he went on to ride the bench almost exclusively.
