- Billy Donovan has resigned as head coach of the Chicago Bulls after six seasons, with the decision announced on Tuesday.
- His departure will allow new basketball operations leadership the freedom to reshape the struggling franchise and appoint their own staff.
- President and CEO Michael Reinsdorf, who initially wished for Donovan to stay, stated that this approach was best for the organization's future.
- During his tenure, Donovan led the Bulls to one playoff appearance in the 2021-22 season, followed by three consecutive play-in tournament losses.
- The move follows criticism of the previous front office's roster construction and recent trades that yielded only second-round draft picks.
