While the NBA Finals are just about set, the rest of the league is in the early stages of their offseason. For the Chicago Bulls, they are now looking ahead to the 2022 NBA Draft in less than a month, along with looming free agency decisions to follow closely thereafter.

This summer will be a big one for the Bulls. There are several questions needing answers, and not all of them will come right away.

Point guard Lonzo Ball’s health is a huge concern, and the Bulls need him to recover fully if they are to have any immediate success in the coming season. But, aside from Ball, another starting guard faces a big offseason: Zach LaVine.

The Bulls will watch LaVine “enjoy the process” of free agency this summer while hoping he ultimately decides to return. But, regardless of LaVine’s status, the Bulls should also try to be aggressive in improving this roster.

This offseason, the Chicago Bulls should get aggressive in trying to add talent via trade.

Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley did a lot last summer in order to make the Bulls relevant again. Trading for DeMar DeRozan, along with Ball, were two huge moves that affected Chicago’s season in a big way.

Signing guys like Alex Caruso and Derrick Jones Jr. were also underrated moves that paid dividends.

But, this summer, maybe just one more big move could put the Bulls over the top. There are a few players whom the Bulls could move, and believe it or not, they’d be a better team for it. These three trades are aggressive, but the Bulls could give them a shot in order to make a huge splash this offseason.
