With the 2022 NBA Draft just about a week away, rumors are going to continue to swirl. For the Chicago Bulls, rumors and reports have not been in a shortage lately.
Maybe the biggest report to come out this week was the thought that Zach LaVine does intend to re-sign with the Bulls. This wasn’t the first report to suggest that LaVine sticks around, but it was a big one from Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer.
Other than the LaVine saga, there’s also the case of Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert and the rumor that Chicago could end up dealing for the 3-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year.
Now, yet another report came out about another player that could be moved. Bulls guard Coby White very well may be traded, as league executives believe the Bulls are “not in love” with the former no. 7 pick.
By trading Coby White, the Chicago Bulls could add some much-needed value.
If Lonzo Ball comes back healthy and Ayo Dosunmu continues his ascension, there really isn’t a place for White to get a ton of playing time. Alex Caruso is also going to pick up a lot of the reserve minutes, and both Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan will play plenty.
Now, one of the reports that came out suggested that the Bulls could package White and the no. 18 pick in a trade. However, the opportunity to keep the no. 18 pick and still deal White for a good value is there.
What if the Bulls could keep their first-round pick and also add more draft capital or veteran help by trading White? Let’s look at three possible trades where the Bulls do just that.
