3 key players the Chicago Bulls could trade this offseason

Maybe one of the most polarizing teams during the thick of the NBA offseason is going to be the Chicago Bulls.

The free agency class is not as exciting as it normally is, with some of the top names having to opt-out in order to make it a deeper class. However, one of the best available unrestricted free agents now comes by way of Chicago.

It is the summer of Zach LaVine, folks. Over the next three weeks, we could have a real good idea of where LaVine is going to be playing next season. Will it be in Chicago?

Along with LaVine, the Bulls are concerned with another guard: Lonzo Ball. No, he’s not going anywhere, but his health is truly starting to become worrisome. With big questions surrounding both LaVine and Ball, could the Bulls make a move to help bolster depth? Who would they trade from their current roster?

This offseason might end up being much more eventful for the Chicago Bulls than originally anticipated.

First of all, any big trade that could happen assumes the Bulls keep LaVine and want to continue building talent around he and DeMar DeRozan — or does it?

Lately, the Bulls have been in the midst of plenty of rumors. The most recent includes the Bulls being interested in trading for Rudy Gobert or signing free agent Mitchell Robinson. Clearly, Chicago is in the market for upgrading their front court — but will it be at the expense of Nikola Vucevic?

How do the Bulls build on last year without tearing down what they currently have? That’s the big question, and if we’re being realistic, the answer might be: slowly and with smaller moves.

But, that’s not the topic at hand, here. This offseason, the Bulls might just make headlines with a big move or two. So, who could they end up parting with?
