Just over a month ago, the Chicago Bulls made the tough call to waive Jahmir Young, opting to use his open two-way slot on Yuki Kawamura. The Bulls' decision to part ways with Young came following an impressive summer league showing.

Across five appearances in the exhibition season, Young averaged 13.6 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game. The 6-foot-1 guard shot a blistering 53.3 percent from the floor and 56.3 percent from beyond the arc.
