Free Agency: Chicago Bulls power forward Patrick Williams has expressed optimism that he will be able to continue with the franchise despite his contractual problems.
The 22-year-old signed a mega four-year deal with the Bulls in 2020 which is now set to expire at the end of the ongoing campaign.
Williams was recently quoted in the report where he expressed optimism that he will be able to continue playing for the Bulls despite no news about any extension at the end of his current contract.
"I don't think anybody knows what their future is to be honest," he said. "I would love to continue to be a Bull. I love it here. I love the opportunity we have to build culture, to build something special with this group and this team.
I think I could really be a cornerstone piece for this team. But you never know what the future holds, and I understand it's a business. Like I said, I love it here. I love the team. I love the guys. I love the front office."
Williams is currently spending time on the sidelines because of a concern. The North Carolina-born is having a below-par campaign for the Bulls where he is contributing 10 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.
