The Chicago Bulls’ head coaching search is still moving, and Haize breaks down the latest updates surrounding Jerry Stackhouse, Micah Nori, and Bryson Graham’s patient approach to finding the right coach for Chicago’s rebuild.
Stackhouse recently addressed NBA head coaching openings and made it clear that player development is one of his biggest strengths. He also pointed directly to the Bulls as a situation with real upside because of Chicago’s cap space, draft picks, and ability to change direction quickly. Could Stackhouse be a serious candidate for the Bulls job?
Haize also reacts to Micah Nori confirming that there have been “feelers” with Chicago while the Bulls continue to move through a coaching search that reportedly includes more than 10 candidates. With the NBA Draft only weeks away, should Bulls fans be concerned that no head coach has been hired yet?
Then the conversation shifts to the 2026 NBA Draft, where Caleb Wilson is already making bold statements about changing the Bulls’ culture if Chicago selects him at No. 4. Haize discusses Wilson’s confidence, the North Carolina-to-Chicago connection, and why the Bulls may be choosing between Wilson and Cameron Boozer at the top of the draft.
Plus, the No. 15 pick remains a major swing point. Could Yaxel Lendeborg be the next Bulls draft steal? Could Allen Graves become Bryson Graham’s draft crush because of his size, length, athleticism, and physicality? And what does it mean that the Bulls officially worked out Keaton Wagler and Morez Johnson Jr.?
