The Bulls have officially hired Stephen Mervis and Acie Law IV to their front office, announcing the news in a press release. Mervis’ title is senior vice president of basketball operations, while Law is the new VP of player personnel.
Both moves were reported last week.
According to the team, Mervis will “primarily be responsible for salary cap strategy and analytics.” Law, a former NBA guard, will largely focus on the draft and scouting, but he’ll be involved in all aspects of player personnel as well.
Mervis has spent the past 12 years with the Magic after getting his NBA start as an intern with the Pacers. He steadily worked his way up Orlando’s organization, with his most recent title being assistant general manager.
Law was the 11th pick in the 2007 draft and spent four season in the NBA before continuing his career in Europe. He became a scout for Sacramento in 2018, spending four years with the Kings, then joined the Thunder’s front office from 2022-25. He spent last season as Brooklyn’s director of player personnel.
Mervis and Law are the first major hires under new head of basketball operations Bryson Graham, a longtime Pelicans employee who spent last season in Atlanta’s front office.
