The Chicago Bulls fired longtime general manager Gar Forman on Monday, the same day they made official the hiring of Arturas Karnisovas as executive vice president of basketball operations.

"It was so clear that Arturas checked every box for us," Bulls team president Michael Reinsdorf said. "But there is one thing left. At the end of the day, Jerry, my dad, is still the boss. It was clear after that meeting that we had our guy."
