Chicago Bulls should take chance, trade for Frank Mason III
The Chicago Bulls have had an eventful offseason. However, they are still holes to fill, specifically at point guard. Should the Bulls go after Frank Mason?
The Chicago Bulls have stayed busy during this summer’s offseason.
The Bulls kicked off the offseason with a productive draft, drafting Wendell Carter Jr and Chandler Hutchison.
Once free agency began, the Bulls shipped out Jerian Grant, cut ties with David Nwaba, and locked up Zach Lavine long-term.

Perhaps the Bulls biggest move was their last, as the Bulls signed Chicago native Jabari Parker to a two-year/$40-million deal.
While the Bulls are banking on potential turned production, its clear that they’ve improved from last season. With a weaker Eastern Conference, the Bulls could make a playoff push if all goes right,.
However, theres still work to be done. With Grant out, the Bulls are weak at the point guard position. Kris Dunn is slated to start, however the 24-year old only played in 52 games last season, and might not be ready to take on a hefty minutes load.
If Dunn can’t handle an increase in minutes, well, the Bulls are in trouble.
Behind Dunn is Cameron Payne, who played in just 25 games all of last season. With just two point guards with legitimate NBA experience on their roster, the Bulls should, and could, be in the market for a point guard.
Almost a full month through NBA free agency, the options aren’t exactly fulfilling. Therefore, the Bulls should look to deal for another point guard.
Here’s one guy that could be the perfect man for the job.
