In related news about the Washington Post and the state of journalism today, Amazon "ran a $1.2 billion tax bill last year, down from $9 billion the previous year, even as its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion."
That's in the wake of the 2025 tax bill

Amazon's tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts
The 87 percent drop is largely due to a more generous depreciation break in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act.'

Note on the Dalen Terry trade — sources confirmed to me that a stipulation of the deal was Yabusele declining his player option.
So that is another expiring deal for the Bulls. Yabu will be a UFA after this season. Makes more sense in that context.
