The Chicago Bulls trade Zach LaVine and/or DeMar DeRozan

At least for now, it doesn’t seem that the Chicago Bulls are going to be sellers at the NBA Trade Deadline. They’ve played better as of late and the hope is that they can continue to recent play into the second half of the season. Whether or not that ends up working out for the team remains to be seen.

However, if they were to turn away from that thinking and possibly trade one (or both) of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan, it would pose a huge hypothetical heading into the NBA Trade Deadline.

If LaVine and/or DeRozan are available at the trade deadline, a huge bidding war is sure to break out for either player. And if they were to deal one at the deadline, it could send some major shockwaves around the league.
