3 Coby White mentors for Chicago Bulls to target in free agency

The Chicago Bulls need to make some changes to their roster this summer. Arturas Karnisovas has stated the team has no intention of rebuilding, and if that’s the case, it cannot run back the same squad. The core pieces of Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic can stay, but additions are needed.
