Another shocking development has happened in 2016 free agency. The Chicago Bulls are going to sign Dwyane Wade to a contract, as long as the Bulls can find homes for Jose Calderon and Mike Dunleavy in a trade to clear cap space. The Miami Heat free agent has been in a stalemate with the Heat during negotiations, and decided to call Pat Riley’s bluff by taking a deal with another team.
