Chicago should easily leverage their cap space to their advantage

Bulls get: Braun (bad contract) Poeltl (bad contract)

8 in the draft via ATL

26 via DEN

2027 frp via TOR 2029 FRP via TOR 2032 FRP via LAL

Hawks get: Tre Jones (great backup PG) iykyk

15

2 srps (solid value imo for moving back 7 spots)

Nuggets get: Jarred Vanderbilt Issac Okoro (expiring) Jalen Smith (expiring) 2032 SRP via LAL Free up 20 mil in cap space

Lakers get: Aaron Gordon

Raptors get: Rob Dillingham 2027 SRP via DEN (from Chicago) 20 mil in cap space (off the awful Poeltl contract)

both the Poeltl and Braun contracts are awful and would require moving multiple frps to get off of

Draft:

4 Caleb Wilson

8 Kingston Flemings

26 Meleek Thomas

38 Tarris Reed jr

(some guys could rise or fall but im basing this off of consensus mock drafts or where they will likely be drafted)

FA- There is other moves to be made regarding cap space and acquiring picks, but ill assume their big FA move is bringing back Sexton

Rotation: Giddey Sexton Buzelis Wilson Poeltl

Bench: Flemings Braun Thomas Miller/Essengue Reed
