After a difficult season, the Chicago Bulls have decided to part ways with Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley, who served as vice president and general manager of the franchise, before the end of the regular season. The two men had been in their positions for six years.
A new chapter begins for the Chicago Bulls as the Illinois franchise announced on Monday the dismissal of their vice president, Arturas Karnisovas, and general manager, Marc Eversley, just days before the end of the NBA regular season. The two men were hired at the start of the 2020-2021 season.
“Arturas and Marc have shown unwavering dedication to the Chicago Bulls. These decisions are never easy, especially when they involve individuals we respect both personally and professionally. We are grateful for their commitment and the work they have done over the past six years,” said Michael Reinsdorf, president of the franchise, in the club’s statement.
Reinsdorf continued, “However, we have not achieved the success that our fans deserve, and it is my responsibility to guide our team in a new direction. This decision aims to ensure lasting success for our team.”
Context: The Chicago Bulls have made changes to their front office leadership after a series of seasons with disappointing results.
Fact Check: The Chicago Bulls had a negative record of 224 wins and 254 losses since the arrival of Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley, with only one playoff appearance in 2021-2022 where they were eliminated in the first round.
