I would imagine he'd want to go somewhere as more than the 4th option so he can put up better numbers.
He put up almost 25 pts/5+ assists and still wasn't even looked at as a serious option by teams with cap space this year. I'm not sure why that would change with him being a year older next year. Even if there may be more teams (not sure on that) with cap room, there also may be a better FA class next summer.
Him turning down 2/$80m from the Bulls is gonna come back to bite him. If he ends up taking an MLE or something for 2024 that's going to be almost $30m in salary he lost for 2024.

He can’t shoot. So might as well play Paul Reed with Embiid and locking down the opponent on defense.

Report also said he’s trying to build his value for 2025 FA.

What's to like about Vanderbilt? Wouldn't it be better to just play Reed?
The Lakers got bamboozled by Ainge with Vanderbilt. He seems like a lengthier Luc Mbah a Moute.
Philadelphia has agreed to terms with Paul George, Kelly Oubre, Andre Drummond, and Eric Gordon, and extended Tyrese Maxey already in free agency, and has more moves to make.
Philadelphia is scouring the free agent market and potential trade options to land another forward, with Paul Reed expected to be waived or used in a trade, league sources told HoopsHype.
The 76ers have exploratory interest in trading for Nets forward Dorian Finney-Smith, league sources told HoopsHype, but nothing is considered imminent there.
The team’s No. 41 overall pick, Adem Bona, is expected to land a standard NBA contract and earn a roster spot with the 76ers, league sources told HoopsHype.
The 76ers will also cast a wide net to fill out its bench and are interested in adding more shooting and guard depth.
Philadelphia has interest in Lester Quinones, league sources told HoopsHype. The 76ers were also linked to veteran Reggie Bullock, per Kelly Iko of The Athletic.
Lastly, Kyle Lowry is still a possible candidate to return, but the Suns also have interest in his services.

He should hustle back to CHI and see if he can get that offer back in the table.
However, the Bulls are preoccupied trying to dump LaVine. If I'm Charlotte, I say "here's Bertans fully guaranteed, you give me LaVine and your 27 top 4 protected 1st. And toss in that Portland pick you have while we're at it".
