The Chicago Bulls are reportedly shopping two guards, Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White, in trade talks.
– *Ayo Dosunmu:*
– *Likely Trade Candidate*: Dosunmu’s expiring contract and diminished role behind Tre Jones make him an attractive trade chip.
– *Potential Suitor*: Teams like the Orlando Magic and San Antonio Spurs have inquired about Dosunmu.
– *Possible Return*: Trading Dosunmu could net a defensive wing or a second-round pick.
– *Coby White:*
– *Valuable Asset*: White’s breakout season and chemistry with Josh Giddey make him a valuable asset.
– *Contract Situation*: White is entering the final year of his contract and will likely seek a significant raise in free agency.
– *Trade Value*: Trading White could yield assets like a young wing or draft picks.
Other Potential Moves:
– *Nikola Vučević Trade*: The Bulls could trade Vučević for a defensive wing like Miami’s Haywood Highsmith to balance the roster.
– *Josh Giddey’s Contract*: Giddey is seeking a deal worth around $30 million per year, while the Bulls are playing hardball due to limited spending room.
Potential Targets:
– *Bruce Brown*: A point-of-attack defender who could pair well with Giddey.
– *De’Andre Hunter*: A 3-and-D wing who could complement the Bulls’ young core.
– *Gui Santos*: A young forward who could add youth and shooting to the Bulls’ frontcourt.
– *Cameron Payne*: A bench player who could provide quickness and energy on defense.
– *James Harden*: A veteran scorer and playmaker who could fix the Bulls’ half-court offense.
– *Julius Randle*: A tough, scoring big man who could form a strong frontcourt duo with Vučević .
