In this scenario we see Giannis' arrival in NY with the consequent departure of KAT and M.Bridges, C.White's departure towards Minnesota and the return of his frp to Portland.

• Wolves: trades DiVincenzo, J.Beringer and 1frp for C.White. This move allows Minnesota to add the final missing piece to a roster that appears, now more than ever, ready to compete for a ring.

• Blazers: trades Grant and Y.Hansen for Z.Collins, K.Huenter and 1frp. This move allows Portland to regain their draft pick and get rid of Grant's heavy contract, which has little to do with this roster.

• Knicks: trades KAT, M.Bridges, 2frp and 2srp for Giannis and Vucevic. This move needs no explanation, Giannis wants NY and even if the price to get it is high, with the collaboration of the Bulls this operation can be facilitated and a decisive aim for the ring.

• Bucks: trades Giannis for M.Bridges, P.Williams, J.Smith, J.Carter, J.Phillips, 4frp and 4srp. Losing Giannis almost certainly means a rebuid, so having a return of this level is essential, because Milwaukee would gain a high-level player, 3 young players, a veteran and significantly increase their draft capital.

• Bulls: trades C.White, Vucevic, Z.Collins, K.Huenter, P.Williams, J.Smith, J.Carter, J.Phillips, 2frp and 2srp for KAT, Grant, DiVincenzo, Y.Hansen and J.Beringer. With these moves, Chicago breathes new life into its roster and acquires a couple of young players with potential; this gives it the chance to immediately become competitive in a very unique and more accessible Eastern Conference.

• Bulls roster after the trades:

• Guards: Giddey, DiVincenzo, Okoro*, Ayo, T.Jones and D.Terry

• Forwards: Grant, Buzelis, Okoro*, Essengue, J.Beringer, T.Flowers and E.Miller

• Centers: KAT, Y.Hansen and L.Olbrich.
