Chicago Bulls Fire GM Gar Formam, Hire Former Denver Nuggets GM Arturas Karnisovas

The Chicago Bulls fired general manager Gar Forman on Monday, and officially hired Denver Nuggets GM Arturas Karnisovas as their executive vice president of basketball operations and moving John Paxson into an advisory role.

Paxson is moving into a background role after nearly two decades as the top basketball decision-maker. He took over as general manager for Jerry Krause in 2003 and was promoted to vice president of basketball operations in May 2009 with Forman — who joined the Bulls as a scout in 1998 — becoming GM.
