Bulls looking like they’re gonna blow it up per Shams. Could the Celtics be buyers?
Developing: NBA teams are probing the availability of Bulls two-time All-Star Zach LaVine and there is increased openness from both sides about exploring a trade, sources say.

If Brad Stevens could by some miracle get Alex Caruso then he’s just the GOAT GM idc
We need a wing or a big.
I’d love theis later down the line but some more wing scoring would be nice
I would take Drummond
Also anyone saying Caruso you’re wrong man
He’s gonna be damn expensive and he’s completely redundant here, we have Jrue holiday and Derrick white already lol, we need more bench scoring and reliable big man depth not another defensive guard
Torrey Craig is the only likely target from the Bulls that we could salary match.
Torrey Craig is the only one I would target.
I’m not sure why people keep saying Alex Caruso, we need a bigger wing and Torrey Craig would be perfect and he has a small contract.
Andre Drummond I’m sort of on the edge because he does have a small contract too but you could get a better big with a contract similar to his. Such as Precious Achiuwa, Jalen Smith or Day’Ron Sharpe whose really underrated and young. Drummond is still a great rebounder, but very limited on offense.
Obviously not how blow ups work but I’d love to poach their younger guys.
They’re all pretty underrated imo.
Ayo Dosunmu is an athletic 2-way guard on a super team-friendly deal. Patrick Williams is a defensive bench wing who would slot right in. Coby White is probably the worst fit but I think he might have a little breakout once Chicago blows up.
But they don’t really have anyone to build around, so a blow up could look pretty ugly for them early on.
if the Bulls are blowing it up, the players I’m asking about are Ayo Dosunmu and Jevon Carter. Either of those guys would be great for our bench
I’d take a flyer on Patrick Williams or Alex Caruso.
I think Carusos would be a bit pricy!
any possibility of snagging torrey AND jevon?
Drummond would be a cheap upgrade for the Kornet minutes that can also play next to KP or Horford. He’s good as a regular season innings eater
Caruso will have a bidding war, I think a cheaper option could be Jevon carter. Still a good defender and good spot up shooter, he’s given us fits in the playoffs before too so maybe he’s in brads radar. Drummond as a third big is also interesting
Caruso, Drummond or Craig could be nice, Jevon Carter too, pretty sure he is locked up for a few seasons
We better be. When Philly gets Derozan or Levine they are going to be nasty
buy low on patrick williams
I rather get a big man
I’ll sell the entire bench (save Hauser) + a bunch of 2nd round picks, for Pat Will and Coby White.
I’d give up a couple picks + any of the deep bench guys (including Walsh) for Ayo Dosunmu.
And I’d move PP, Brissett + two 2nds for a package of Carter and Drummond/Craig.
But never Caruso.
Is there ANY POSSIBILE WAY we can package the assets and clear the cap space to add DeMar or LaVine?
I just DO NOT WANT either guy going to Miami, Philly or Milwaukee. A DeMar + Jimmy or Giannis combo would be death inside.
Caruso the only one worth anything. Patrick Williams on a very cheap deal (except it sounds like he wants the bag, which is an absolute no for me).
Edit: Forgot about Torrey, he’d be nice.
Drummond wouldn’t be a bad bench big, Caruso seems a bit redundant
Caruso!!
