The Chicago Bulls could trade Nikola Vucevic to the San Antonio Spurs

Lastly, the Bulls could try to pull off a trade with the San Antonio Spurs for the second year in a row. Last summer, Chicago dealt for DeRozan. This summer, they could try a deal involving Vucevic.

Last season, center Jakob Poeltl was involved in many trade rumors. At one point, he was linked to the Bulls. In that report, it was stated that the Spurs want a first-round pick and a good player in return for Poeltl.

Well, San Antonio, here is your offer. Vucevic and the number 18 pick in exchange for Poeltl. This might be the best offer the Spurs will get for their young center on the rise.

The 26-year-old big man put up 13.5 points and 9.3 boards in a career year last season and is more of the traditional center. He plays in the post and doesn’t offer much on the outside. But, with shooters like DeRozan and LaVine, it might help to have a rising post presence and change up the scheme just a bit.

No longer will we have to see Vucevic’s streaky shooting from beyond the arc — although it’s been huge at times. Now, the Bulls focus on a new era going forward.
