Bulls-Nuggets 

Post#1 » by pipfan » Fri Aug 14, 2026 7:27 am

Nnaji to Bulls for a 2nd (Bulls can absorb him), and the Bulls get a 2030 unprotected pick swap

This saves Den about $35 million in salary, and should help resign Watson (even if he just takes the QO, it'll cost the Nugs A TON with lux tax)

Bulls use cap space to get a swap which could be awesome (or nothing, but worth a gamble)

Another option is to do it in a two part deal, with LMiller going to Denver for Holmes (I know nothing about him)-that would save Den another million and give them a playable forward. Not sure if Holmes is worth the gamble for Chi, but we have plenty of power forwards, and need to have some minutes for Noa E.
