Chicago Bulls Receive: Russell Westbrook
Washington Wizards Receive: Otto Porter Jr., Thaddeus Young, Chandler Hutchison
Russell Westbrook going to the Chicago Bulls would be the centerpiece in a blockbuster NBA trade such as this one — creating an intriguing duo with Zach LaVine. He has shown this year that he can still play the game at a high-level despite after beginning the season ‘playing on one leg’ as he recently stated.
The return for the Washington Wizards would be centered around Otto Porter Jr. He is one of the most underrated three-point threats in the league and would give the Wizards another threat on the outside.
Thaddeus Young and Chandler Hutchinson would also be on their way to Wizards in this trade scenario, too. Young would help Washington to improve defensively and Hutchinson provides additional value to entice Washington.
Let’s take a look and see how this blockbuster NBA trade centered around Russell Westbrook would benefit both the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards.
