Daniel Theis, Bulls Rumors (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images)
Bulls rumors are starting to emerge concerning looming free agents, including some of the bigger names like fourth-year power forward Lauri Markkanen and former Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis. Both Theis and Markkanen saw their names show up in various rumors of late.
Markkanen is set to become a restricted free agent this offseason with his rookie deal expiring. Executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley had the chance to hand Markkanen a contract extension last offseason, but nothing wound up getting done.
