Another year of the tank for Utah-time to move Lauri

Lauri for #12, Port pick, 2027 Bulls' 1st (top 4 protected for 1 year, then 2 seconds), PWill, Vuc (3rd team for Vuc?)

Utah goes for the 2026 draft, and adds assets

Chi goes for it-this could turn into a 50 win team
White/Ayo/JCarter
Giddey/Ball
Matas/Huerter
Lauri/Phillips
Collins/Smith

I like the lineup the Bulls end up with, they can score 130 points a night, they might be giving up 128-134 on the other end.

The problem for UT would be they're giving the Bulls a much improved team so that 2027 pick has almost no chance of being top 4. And that makes it a weak return

I need more.

I have this as an overpay for Lauri.

This is underwhelming in that there is no clear centerpiece, but I would do it if it is the best offer.

From what I saw in the other thread, the 2027 pick might be an overpay (or more protection)
