Karnisovas (vice president of basketball operations) and Eversley (general manager) are now out in Chicago amid a fourth straight losing season by the team (this one marking their worst yet at 29-49).<\/p>\n<p>Kurt Helin of NBC Sports <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/chicago-fires-lead-executives-arturas-karnisovas-marc-eversley\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reports that<\/a> retired former NBA All-Star Kyle Korver has emerged as a candidate to lead basketball operations for the Bulls. Korver currently serves as assistant general manager of the Atlanta Hawks<a class=\"maisdio-link\" href=\"#\" data-sport=\"nba\" data-team=\"20000003\" data-name=\"Atlanta Hawks\" data-track-content=\"\" data-content-name=\"mai-sportsdataio-link\" data-content-piece=\"Atlanta Hawks\"><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Helin also notes that Hawks GM Landry Fields, Golden State Warriors<a class=\"maisdio-link\" href=\"#\" data-sport=\"nba\" data-team=\"20000026\" data-name=\"Golden State Warriors\" data-track-content=\"\" data-content-name=\"mai-sportsdataio-link\" data-content-piece=\"Golden State Warriors\"><\/a> GM Mike Dunleavy, Minnesota Timberwolves<a class=\"maisdio-link\" href=\"#\" data-sport=\"nba\" data-team=\"20000016\" data-name=\"Minnesota Timberwolves\" data-track-content=\"\" data-content-name=\"mai-sportsdataio-link\" data-content-piece=\"Minnesota Timberwolves\"><\/a> GM Matt Lloyd<a class=\"maisdio-link\" href=\"#\" data-sport=\"mlb\" data-athlete=\"10013661\" data-name=\"Matt Lloyd\" data-track-content=\"\" data-content-name=\"mai-sportsdataio-link\" data-content-piece=\"Matt Lloyd\"><\/a>, and CAA agent Austin Brown<a class=\"maisdio-link\" href=\"#\" data-sport=\"cfb\" data-athlete=\"50017230\" data-name=\"Austin Brown\" data-track-content=\"\" data-content-name=\"mai-sportsdataio-link\" data-content-piece=\"Austin Brown\"><\/a> are other potential candidates for the opening in Chicago. You can read Helin\u2019s full report on the situation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/chicago-fires-lead-executives-arturas-karnisovas-marc-eversley\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Of those names, Korver, now 45, probably makes the most sense as an NBA front office figure who also does not have a position as a lead executive just yet. He played in the NBA from 2003-2020 and made a name for himself as a sharpshooter who hit 2,450 three-pointers at an elite 42.9 percent clip. Korver also played for the Bulls themselves from 2010-12.<\/p>\n<p>After retiring as a player, Korver went into coaching and front office work and has served as Hawks assistant GM since 2023. Chicago fans <a href=\"https:\/\/larrybrownsports.com\/basketball\/kyle-korver-writes-heartfelt-facebook-post-derrick-rose\/132459\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">have at least some fond memories of Korver<\/a>, and now there is a possibility that he could return as the lead executive of the Bulls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A notable reunion may be on the table for the Chicago Bulls.
