A busy offseason ahead for the Chicago Bulls did get some clarity on the afternoon of May 18. A report from ESPN NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski on his Twitter timeline early this week showed the intent that Bulls newly acquired veteran forward Al-Farouq Aminu intends to opt into the final year of his current contract ahead of the start of the 2021-22 season.

Aminu was set to have a player option that he could pick up heading into the final year of his current contract this offseason.
