Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf and new head coach Tom Thibodeau will accompany general manager Gar Forman and executive vice president John Paxson on their recruiting trip of LeBron James, according to a source.
The NBA's free-agent market opens at 12:01 a.m. ET on Thursday and James is expected to host representatives from several teams in Ohio.
The Nets and Knicks are expected to meet with James on Thursday.
It's not certain when the Bulls will meet with LeBron.
"When July hits, there are so many scenarios and so many different things that can happen," Forman said on "Mike & Mike In The Morning" on ESPN Radio. "Our job as a front office has been to spend time preparing for all the different things that can happen, not unlike the draft. To prepare for the draft, you have a lot of options in front of you and you have to study all those options and sometimes make quick decisions, so you have to spend time beforehand and take a look at all those things and be ready for anything that comes about.
"You can't have any contact until July 1, so obviously on July 1 we're going to be very active. There are different paths you can take, but on July 1, we'll get a feel for the landscape, and then make decisions based off that."
