5 Bulls Who Won't Return Next Season

As the 2023-24 NBA campaign winds down, don't count on seeing these five Chicago Bulls in the Windy City next season.

4. Javonte Green, SF/PF

I wouldn't be shocked if plenty of teams call Javonte Green when the veteran forward hits free agency this summer.

After spending most of the 2023-24 season with the G League's Santa Cruz Warriors, Green joined the Bulls on a 10-day contract at the end of March. Even though it was initially seen as a 'nothing' signing at first, the 30-year-old's play surprised enough people to the point where the franchise signed him for the remainder of the year on April 4.

Yes, it's a small sample size, but Green has looked good as he averages 11.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and a 68.8% field-goal percentage across 21.2 minutes per night. If he could maintain that production for an entire 82-game schedule, it'd be a career year for the former Radford product.

I'm not saying that this production will be the norm for Green, but his play does prove that he can't be written off just yet. If an interested party is convinced that he's the real deal, they're going to give him a chance to do so in a bigger role next season. It'll just likely have to happen in a non-Chicago city, though, given that the Bulls are heading for a rebuild and won't need his services anymore.
