Bulls Free Agent Watch: Cam Whitmore, Cam Thomas & Mathurin? PLUS Matas Wants Luka Smoke

Could the Chicago Bulls still make one more free-agent swing before training camp?

On today’s Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the top free-agent and potential waiver targets who could still fit the Bulls’ rebuild, including Bennedict Mathurin, Cam Whitmore, Cam Thomas, Bruce Brown and Ochai Agbaji. The big correction: Cam Whitmore is not technically a free agent yet, but Cleveland is reportedly weighing a waive-and-stretch move that could put him on the market — and if that happens, he immediately becomes one of the most interesting Bulls targets available.

Haize explains why Mathurin is the best player available but also the most complicated option. He brings youth and proven scoring, but his restricted free-agent status, expected price range, and the likely need for a sign-and-trade make him a difficult fit for Chicago’s current plan.

The show dives into why Cam Whitmore might be the best realistic Bulls opportunity if Cleveland waives him. At only 22 years old, Whitmore offers scoring aggression, rim pressure, transition ability and reclamation upside at a potentially depressed price — exactly the kind of low-risk swing a rebuilding team should consider.

Haize also weighs Cam Thomas as a pure bench bucket-getter, Bruce Brown as a veteran stabilizer, and Ochai Agbaji as a quiet 3-and-D flyer. With several useful players still unsigned and most teams out of meaningful spending power, Chicago’s $9.4 million room exception may suddenly have real leverage.

Plus, Matas Buzelis wants his get back against Luka Doncic. After their March trash-talk exchange ended with Luka dropping 51, Matas said he would talk again and wants another shot — and Haize explains why that competitive edge matters for a young Bulls forward trying to earn respect.
