Free agent guard Patrick Beverley is finalizing a deal with the Chicago Bulls, his agent, Kevin Bradbury, told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Monday.
The deal is likely to be completed as soon as Tuesday, when the Bulls are expected to waive a player to create a roster spot for Beverley, sources said. The Bulls want Beverley, a Chicago native who attended John Marshall High School, to bring some ferocity to the court and locker room.
With a 26-33 record at the All-Star break, the Bulls are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings, two games back of the Toronto Raptors for the final play-in spot.
Beverley averaged 6.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 45 starts for the Los Angeles Lakers this season before being dealt to the Orlando Magic at the Feb. 9 trade deadline. The Magic waived Beverley on Feb. 12 after reaching a buyout agreement, and he subsequently cleared waivers to become a free agent.
