🚨 The Chicago Bulls head coaching search is officially heating up, and six candidates have reportedly emerged as names to watch for Bryson Graham and the new Bulls front office.

Haize breaks down the reported list of Sean Sweeney, Micah Nori, Dave Bliss, Tiago Splitter, James Borrego, and Wes Unseld Jr. — what each coach brings, their strengths, concerns, development track records, and who actually fits the Bulls’ rebuild best.

Could the Bulls go defense-first with Sean Sweeney? Could they swing upside with Dave Bliss out of Oklahoma City’s player-development machine? Is Tiago Splitter the fresh offensive voice Chicago needs? Or could James Borrego, Micah Nori, or Wes Unseld Jr. make sense depending on what Graham values most?

Haize also looks at possible surprise names not on the main list, including Jason Kidd, Rajon Rondo, Chris Quinn, Sam Cassell, Lamar Skeeter, and Ryan Schmidt.

Then, the show shifts to the 2026 NBA Draft Combine, where prospects like Morez Johnson Jr., Cameron Boozer, Cameron Carr, Chris Cenac Jr., and Baba Miller helped themselves — while others like Yaxel Lendeborg, Kingston Flemings, and Labaron Philon Jr. raised questions.

Could Cameron Carr’s huge Combine push him out of range for the Bulls at No. 15? Did Cameron Boozer quiet some athleticism concerns? Is Morez Johnson Jr. now a serious lottery riser?
