Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf is planning to accompany general manager John Paxson to California early next week to meet with Tyson Chandler and agent Jeff Schwartz, according to a team source.
Chandler is a restricted free agent who has not reached agreement with the Bulls or received an offer from another team. Paxson has repeatedly maintained that he’ll match any offer sheet, which may have driven down outside interest in Chandler.
The Bulls are expected to make an offer in the range of $60 million over six years but may try to work some incentives into the deal. The 7-foot-1 Chandler averaged 8.0 points and 9.7 rebounds in his fourth NBA season. His defense was an important factor in the team’s surprising drive to 47 wins.
Grant may decide soon: Brian Grant expects to settle on a new team within the next few days, according to Chicago-based agent Mark Bartelstein. Grant, a 6-9 power forward, was waived by the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday under the NBA’s amnesty rule.
General manager John Paxson and coach Scott Skiles spoke to Grant by phone Wednesday evening, and the Bulls believe they have a shot to land the 33-year-old free agent.
The Chicago Bulls announced Monday they have matched the contract offer to restricted free agent guard Chris Duhon by the Toronto RaptorsPer team policy, terms of the contract were not disclosed. The Raptors had made their offer August 9.
"Chris was an integral part of our success last season and we're excited to have him back," said John Paxson, the Bulls' executive vice president of basketball operations.
"The opportunity to retain our continuity and see our young team grow together has been a key offseason focus for us, and this is a step in that direction," he said.
Drafted by Chicago in the second round (38th overall) of NBA Draft 2004, the 6-1, 185-pound Duhon was one of only two Bulls to appear in all 82 games during the 2004-05 season, including 73 starts.
The 6-1, 195 pound guard averaged 5.9 ppg, 4.9 apg (NBA rookie-high), 2.6 rpg, 1.00 spg and 26.5 mpg. He also appeared in all six of Chicago's playoff games in 2005 and posted 6.2 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.5 apg and 26.5 mpg.

Dazu kann er scoren und wird nächstes Jahr im Schnitt ein Double-Doubel haben. Darauf kannste einen lassen. Chandler ist mindestens genauso, wenn nicht noch besser als Boozer und hat noch mehr Potenzial als er.
