Bulls guard Coby White is set to be an unrestricted free agent after this season, but Chicago's front office needs to resist the urge to potentially trade its best scorer.
White will hit the open market and reportedly hopes to find a long-term deal worth at least $30 million annually. If the 25-year-old takes another leap this season, there's a chance an even richer contract may be waiting for him. And unlike the current Josh Giddey saga, White can take that large sum of money and bolt from the Windy City if he so desires.
Executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley must take that risk, however, because the North Carolina alum is on pace to be a key piece of the franchise's future.
