Bulls attach Portlands first round pick to Lonzo Ball to ship to Charlotte for absorbing his salary. If healthy lonzo ball could pair with his brother and create a long defensive back court with two 3 and d guys. Bulls get back multiple 2nd round picks to assist in their rebuild. Bulls save 20 million in Cap Space with this trade.
I would do the same with Zach Lavine. Orlando is a great fit. SG is a position that can be upgraded and would take the Orlando Magic to another level. Orlando only actually gives up one of their own picks. Shipping the Bulls pick (#12 predicted) back to them. Bulls get the Magics '24 pick and Denvers '25 pick. Bulls get back a Suggs (expendable as PG is a deep position in Orlando) and take a flier on oft injured PF Johnathan Isaacs. Orlando gets to pair an elite scoring guard with Fultz, Wagner, Carter Jr., and Banchero. This starting lineup would likely have Orlando competing as a top 4 team in the east next year. Bulls save 15.4 million in cap space with this trade.
Bulls trade DeMar Derozan and Drummond to the knicks to take a flier on two young bigs and absorb Evan Fourniers contract for matching purposes. Bulls would likely facilitate a buyout for Fournier as he doesn't fit with the rebuild. Bulls save 4.3 million in cap space with this trade.
Bulls trade Alex Caruso back to Los Angeles lakers for the #17 pick in the draft. They save an additional 9 million in Salary cap space.
