Report: John Paxson Willing to Leave Bulls if Asked

Bulls longtime executive vice president John Paxson is fine with changing roles if or when the Reinsdorf family restructures the front office.

According to The Chicago Sun-Times, Paxson would be willing to move to an advisor role for the Reinsdorf family or leave the Bulls organization completely if the team decides either option is best for its rebuild. A source told the Sun-Times that Paxson wants what's best for the franchise.

Last week, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the Bulls have started a formal search to hire a new top executive with full authority on basketball decisions, appearing they're moving on from Paxson and general manager Gar Forman.
