Golden State Warriors Receive: Zach LaVine, Thaddeus Young

Chicago Bulls Receive: Andrew Wiggins, 2021 1st Round Pick (via MIN), 2022 1st Round Pick (Top 8 Prot.)

Zach LaVine would not be on his own in this deal. Thaddeus Young is a veteran player to help the depth of the Golden State Warriors. Steph Curry and LaVine would immediately be one of the top backcourt in the Western Conference.

It takes firepower to win in a loaded conference. Needing Curry to play at an incredible level every night is going to wear down on him come playoff time. It’s crucial someone else can be trusted to make tough shots and create for teammates.

Andrew Wiggins is the biggest trade piece in Golden State right now so it is hard to imagine his name being left out of any deal that is made. The Chicago Bulls would also get two first-round picks over the next two years that will help guide their rebuild.

Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal centered around Zach LaVine would benefit both the Chicago Bulls and Golden State Warriors.
