ESPN Films and Netflix are partnering on a 10-hour documentary on Michael Jordan called "The Last Dance" that will be released in 2019.

Jordan has signed off on his participation on the project.

The film will be directed by Jason Hehir who also worked on 'The Fab Five' and 'Andre The Giant'.

The series will feature more than 500 hours of previously unseen footage of the Bulls' last title run in the 97-98 season.

When the Golden State Warriors fired Mark Jackson in 2014, they considered hiring Steve Kerr, Stan Van Gundy and Fred Hoiberg.

Hoiberg's potential interest in the Golden State job was downplayed at the time, but he had a "quick, secret and ultimately lackluster" interview.

The Warriors were zeroed in on Kerr and Van Gundy, ultimately hiring Kerr.

Hoiberg remained at Iowa State for another season before joining the Chicago Bulls.

The Chicago Bulls have granted permission to the Charlotte Hornets to interview Jim Boylen for their head coaching vacancy.

Boylen has head coaching experience in college with Utah.

Boylen served on Rudy Tomjanovich's staff during the 1990s with the Rockets. Mitch Kupchak is known to be close with Tomjanovich.

Boylen also worked with the Gregg Popovich in the past.

The Chicago Bulls have been confident they will re-sign Zach LaVine in restricted free agency.

LaVine was asked if he believes he's worth a max contract.

“There are things you work for,” LaVine said. “Max players are top of the line. There are a lot of dudes in the NBA who haven’t been top of the line because of money situations or the cap is bigger or a weird offseason.

“You are what you’re worth. Obviously, you can’t say no to getting one. I see myself being an elite player in this league. I’m going to work for that every day until I get there.”

LaVine is represented by Bill Duffy.

“There’s a lot that goes into it,” LaVine said. “The agency and front office, they’re both trying to get the better of each (other), but I think this situation is a little bit different because there’s mutual respect on both sides and understanding. There’s no bad blood between us, so I think everything will go smoothly.

“I’m not stressed at all. Whatever the number is or terms they’re going to come to, it will happen. That’s why I have great agents. And we have respect, communication and understanding with the front office (so) we’ll let that work itself out.

“I can’t let it get to me. It’s not going to. I have to prepare myself for next year and be ready to take on a bigger role and help the team get better.”

The Chicago Bulls have waived C.J. Fair.

Fair was signed earlier on Monday but was waived to create a roster spot to sign Sean Kilpatrick.

The Chicago Bulls have signed Sean Kilpatrick to a three-year, $6.2 million deal.

The Bulls will hold team options on Kilpatrick for the next two seasons.

The Bulls signed Kilpatrick as part of their midlevel exception.

The Chicago Bulls have signed forward CJ Fair. 

In a related move, prior to signing Fair, Chicago waived forward Jaylen Johnson. 

This season, Fair (6-8, 218) appeared in 47 G League games (25 starts), splitting time between the Windy City Bulls and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants. On the year, he averaged 10.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 25.4 minutes per game.
