The deadline for Bulls options on Ronnie Brewer's $4.37 million and C.J. Watson's $3.2 million salaries has arrived. A decision on Kyle Korver's $5 million option is due by Sunday.
Brewer long has been considered the most expendable of the three because Jimmy Butler, last year's first-round pick, will assume his role.
Because of his shooting specialty, Korver has a slim chance to return and hasn't been told definitively either way. Sources said the Bulls are exploring sign-and-trade possibilities for all three players in an attempt to avoid losing assets for nothing.
One intriguing option would be swingman C.J. Miles, an unrestricted free agent who has started for the Jazz and could add athleticism.

If the 3 former Jazz men haven't performed the way the Bulls wanted (including Boozer in that), why would they want to try a fourth?
