Vucevic Trade Watch 2025

[Hangtime84]

I would really dislike Kuminga. He is a black hole, that still hasn't really found his place, despite being around a championship level franchise.

What if it's for PW straight up?

I have more faith in Pat turning it around than him, but having both compete on the same roster could help both.

Vooch and P-Will for Kuminga

Draft Derik Queen with the 12th pick

rebuild completed - - -

C Queen / Smith / Collins
F Kuminga / Smith
F Buzelis / Huerter / Phillips
G White / Dosunmu / Terry
G Giddey / Ball

Ball out at the deadline for more assets

Collins & Huerter on expirings (likely trade Collins/resign Kevin)

The Bulls are gonna be really good in a couple of yrs

That team might actually contend for the title...of worst defensive team in NBA history.

I would love Kuminga. The Bulls need talent. He's better than PWill. Shows promise as a plus scorer and decent rebounder.

Sometimes guys don't fit. I don't believe in the magic of championship franchises. Its not the franchise, it's Curry (and Durant, Green, Klay).

The Bulls need assets. So they should be drafting guys and bringing in as many top 20 FAs as possible who fit. I think he could fit. The Bulls need players who fit an uptempo style that can attack the rim. Bring him in on a reasonable contract and rebuild your asset based. I don't see many other options.

What's a reasonable contract to you? Because he is looking at a contract in the 30 million per range.

I'd much pay both Coby and Giddey in the 30 million per season range over Kuminga that same type of money.

People look for a lot of things. Who is going to pay him that? I saw a report he was looking for playing time and a consistent role. 3 years, $54 million seems like the ballpark. I don't think he's getting over $25 million a year.

I give roughly 0% odds that Kuminga would sign a deal that GSW could legally S&T to us for PWill.
