The Chicago Bulls are reportedly looking to trade multi-time All-Star Nikola Vucevic, but only if they can get younger pieces in return ¹. This news comes as the team is also looking to offload the contracts of Zach LaVine and Lonzo Ball, in an effort to rebuild and acquire future draft picks ¹ ² ³.
Vucevic, who has been with the Bulls for two seasons, has a three-year, $60 million contract extension that kicks in next season ¹. However, his poor defense and lack of lateral quickness and rim protection have made him a less desirable asset for the team ¹.
The Bulls are looking to rebuild and acquire future draft picks, and trading Vucevic could be a key part of that plan ¹ ⁴ ² ³. However, it remains to be seen if they can find a suitable trade partner and get the value they need in return for the veteran center ¹.
