CHICAGO BULLS

SMALL – Chicago swaps Denzel Valentine for Marquese Chriss

With the departure of Nikola Mirotic, the Bulls could use a super athletic stretch forward to replace him. Denzel Valentine is shooting 38% from beyond the arc while averaging 10 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.1 assists, showing an all-around game. Both could use a change of scenery and that’s not a bad value exhange.

BIG –  Troy Daniels, Chriss and the Suns’ 2019 unprotected 1st round pick for Zach LaVine

Speaking of fits, how fun would a Booker and LaVine back court be to watch? That would have exciting written all over it and with Zach only being 22 it could be that way for about a decade. He will be a restricted free agent this summer and Phoenix would have the right to match any offer. Chicago adds one of the best 3-point shooters in the league, Chriss who fits as mentioned above and a potentially higher 1st round pick.
