WHY THE HAWKS DO IT Ayo Dosunmu competes on both ends of the floor, and can slot into the starting lineup next to Trae without surrendering anything on offense (like Dyson Daniels) or defense (Bogdan Bogdanovic). A protected first round pick could be an overpay, but it's a flyer worth taking based on his performance last season - and with Daniels, Risacher and Kobe Bufkin all on this roster, the Hawks will have their hands full with developing talent for a couple of seasons yet, and therefore can afford to sit out the next draft to fill their biggest need in Dosunmu. Nance Jr. is a great depth piece, but with four 5s on the roster he's the one they can afford to give up. Jevon Carter makes salaries work, but could also prove useful depth - and the pick swap with the Kings is to roll the dice on this line-up while improving their prospects in the 2026 draft.

WHY THE BULLS DO IT Dosunmu showed out the latter half of the last season, but ultimately he's still slated to fall behind Josh Giddey, Coby White, and almost certainly Zach LaVine in the rotation. As a team that isn't going to move the needle anytime soon, the Bulls should continue their rebuild by selling high on Dosunmu to improve their prospects in the next draft. Huerter is a valuable piece to bring back if he regains his shooting form.

WHY THE KINGS DO IT Nance Jr. and Torrey Craig are a huge upgrade to their frontcourt depth, and Huerter - while a great shooter who showed out in his first season in Sacramento - is more dispensable with the addition of DeRozan. The Kings will also need to continue improving on their defnese to have any hope of competing in a crowded Western Conference, and this trade succeeds in achieving that.
