The Bulls have officially signed forward Torrey Craig, the team announced in a press release.
While the Bulls didn’t announce details, the deal is for two years with a player option after year one, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. It is most likely for the veteran’s minimum, or just slightly above that.
Craig, 32, has spent the past two-and-half years with the Suns. He averaged career-highs of 7.4 points and 5.4 rebounds in 74 games last season. Along with Phoenix, has spent time with the Bucks and Nuggets since entering the NBA in 2017.
Chicago has been looking for veteran reinforcements up front and Craig fits such a description. While he’s listed at 6-foot-7, he is rugged enough to defend the power forward and center positions.
The Bulls are also adding point guard Jevon Carter and re-signing guard Coby White, as we relayed on our NBA free agency tracker.
While the Suns lost Craig, they have added the likes of center/forward Bol Bol, forward Yuta Watanabe, forward Keita Bates-Diop and center/forward Drew Eubanks to the frontcourt.
