Bulls Work Out May

The Bulls, always in search of frontcourt scoring, recently worked out former North Carolina standout Sean May.  May was drafted in the lottery by the Charlotte Bobcats in 2005, but injuries and conditioning issues have hampered his career thus far.  He’s a skilled big, though, and could provide some scoring off the bench on the low block if he’s healthy.  May won a National Championship in 2005 with UNC on a team that featured fellow NBAers Raymond Felton, Marvin Williams and Rashad McCants.  He was named the Most Outstanding Player in the Final Four that year.

May looks to serve as a backup plan to a potential Carlos Boozer trade, but it doesn’t sound like that deal is totally dead.  It’s been reported that Utah will match the four-year, $32 million offer sheet that Portland offered Paul Millsap, all but assuring that the team will move Boozer this offseason.  The Bulls have attractive bargaining chips in Tyrus Thomas and Kirk Hinrich, and the fact that it would be the Blazers losing out on Millsap helps facilitate the three-team deal that had been previously rumored.  The Bulls could definitely use some help in the post and it’s good to see that they’re exploring all options.
