Why This Trade Would Benefit The Chicago Bulls
The Chicago Bulls have been near the bottom of the Eastern Conference for years now. Despite having some players like Zach LaVine and Lauri Markkanen, the team has been unable to put together any success. This means the franchise will not hurt by parting ways with either one.
It would benefit the Bulls to tear down this roster and capitalize on Zach LaVine’s trade value while it’s at an all-time high. He will be due for a massive contract extension at some point. Will it be any easier for Chicago to field a winner when it happens?
It begins with Michael Porter Jr. Now that he is healthy, Porter Jr. is showing that he is a suture star in this league. The idea of pairing him with White should excite fans of the Bulls. Porter Jr. is an athletic player with a chance to become one of the big-time scorers in the game.
If a deal can be done for players and draft picks, the Bulls should consider. They would land two-first round picks in this deal as well. This will help them add some more prospects for the future or make another trade somewhere down the line.
The Bulls front office has a lot of work to do if they want to rebuild this team into a contender. It could begin with a big blockbuster deal such as this.
