Could free agent shooting guard Ray Allen spend next season in the Windy City?

The Chicago Bulls are among nearly a dozen teams believed to have contacted the veteran sharpshooter, writes Sam Smith of Bulls.com. Other teams interested in Allen's services include the Cleveland Cavaliers, Houston Rockets, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Washington Wizards and Los Angeles Clippers.

The 39-year-old Allen certainly fits in Chicago, where there exists a cadre of capable defenders to help mask his defensive shortcomings. Allen would figure to come off the bench, a role he played for the Heat over the past two seasons.

Last year, Allen averaged 9.6 points per game on 37.5 percent shooting from deep. He has still not yet ruled out retirement, either.
