3. Chicago Bulls

Now we’re getting to the point where pick swaps really wouldn’t be too useful for any of these teams. What difference does it make if the Chicago Bulls select 2nd or 4th in the order? Regardless, let’s see what type of deal we can work out here.

The Bulls feel they are moving in the right direction but their rebuild could use a boost. They lucked out by having Zach Lavine blossom into a borderline All-Star but it’s clear that he is growing frustrated in his role with the team. A trade could be on the horizon.

The Warriors would definitely be interested in adding Lavine. He is a 6’6″ combo guard who can realistically share the court with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. He has become an elite scorer, averaging over 25 points per game last season.

The Bulls would obviously need something significant in return. Andrew Wiggins could be an option if the Warriors aren’t able to utilize a bridge (more on this later) but assuming this is focusing on the best-case scenario for Golden State than Eric Paschall could be enough to get the job done.
