Simonovic will be waived by the Bulls on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Simonovic signed a three-year deal with the Bulls in August of 2021, but he saw minimal run with the NBA club. He made just 16 appearances over the past two seasons, averaging 1.4 points in 3.4 minutes per game. He'll now seek out other opportunities ahead of the 2023-24 season.

Simonovic generated 18 points (6-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 26 minutes in Windy City's 126-115 win over College Park on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The big man put an exclamation point on a successful tenure with Windy City by posting his second double-double in the final three contests. Simonovic finished the campaign with averages of 15.9 points, 9.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists while shooting 52.4 percent from the field, including 39.3 percent from three-point range.

Simonovic provided 17 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and nine rebounds across 31 minutes in Windy City's 93-89 loss to Maine on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The big man had been reassigned to Windy City on Saturday and worked back in with nine- and 13-point tallies that were accompanied by 11 rebounds apiece in the previous two games. Simonovic has typically been a highly reliable source of scoring and rebounding at the G League level all season and should continue thriving during what's left of the campaign.

Simonovic will join the G League Windy City Bulls on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Simonovic has bounced back and forth between the NBA and the G League this season but has appeared in just three NBA games. He will receive plenty of run with Windy City.

Chicago recalled Simonovic to the NBA club from the G League's Windy City Bulls on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Simonovic, Javonte Green (knee) and Dalen Terry were all assigned to the G League earlier Friday and presumably went through practice before getting sent back to the NBA club later in the day. Simonovic has appeared in only three NBA contests this season, so his availability shouldn't impact Chicago's rotation.

Simonovic was assigned to the G League's Windy City Bulls on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Simonovic will head back to the G League a day after the parent club recalled him. He hasn't seen much playing time for Chicago this year but should have a chance to see more run with Windy City.

Simonovic turned in 24 points (10-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and 17 rebounds across 31 minutes in the Bulls' 135-110 win over the Legends on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Simonovic continues to overpower most G League frontcourts, as he's now recorded three double-doubles in the last four games alone. The 2020 second-round pick is averaging 16.2 points, 10.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 28.3 minutes in 19 G League games overall this season.

Simonovic compiled 26 points (9-17 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 21 rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes in Windy City's 121-120 loss to Westchester on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The young big has been taken his production to another level of late, putting together consecutive double-doubles and three straight double-digit scoring performances overall. Sunday's rebounding total was also a season high for Simonovic, who is encountering little resistance from opposing G League frontcourts for the most part.

Simonovic tallied 17 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes in Windy City's 123-108 win over Westchester on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The big man returned to Windy City on Feb. 22, and after mustering a six-point, 14-rebound effort in his first game the following day, Simonovic broke out with a much more productive performance. The 23-year-old has been quite the force on the glass with 8.9 rebounds per contest, and he's generally been a reliable source of scoring as well with 15.7 points per game on 53.6 percent shooting, including 42.6 percent from distance.
