Matt Lloyd takes lead in Bulls GM search
As of last week, his list of candidates to replace Arturas Karnisovas was down to Timberwolves general manager Matt Lloyd; Bryson Graham, the Hawks ’ vice president of basketball operation; Pistons vice president Dennis Lindsey; and Celtics assistant GM Dave Lewin. All four are considered not only process-oriented but good at communicating their plans to ownership, fans and media. A source told the Sun-Times that although there was no clear-cut favorite for the job as of last Monday, Lloyd has taken the lead and could be named to the position in the next several days.
That makes sense considering his long stint with the Bulls under former basketball operations chief John Paxson, who remains with the organization as an adviser and is said to be a strong Lloyd supporter.
