Chicago Bulls Receive: F Jerami Grant, G Rodney McGruder
Detroit Pistons Receive: F Patrick Williams, F Troy Brown Jr., F Derrick Jones Jr., 2022 First Round Pick (via POR), 2026 Second Round Pick
In this NBA trade scenario, it would be Jerami Grant who is the clear headliner as he would find his way to the Chicago Bulls from the Detroit Pistons.
In exchange for Grant, the Pistons would receive a haul that includes Patrick Williams—the No. 4 overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. Like Grant, Williams is sidelined with an injury and both players are currently not playing but could make a return to the lineup later in the 2021-22 campaign.
The Pistons would not need to worry about Williams’ immediate status as they would land two wings in Troy Brown Jr. and Derrick Jones Jr. in addition.
The Pistons would also send out Rodney McGruder in order to help the Bulls to have another player after sending out three in this deal. Chicago would send the Portland Trail Blazers’ 2022 first-round pick and a 2026 second-round pick throw-ins, too.

From a salary cap perspective, this is a relatively neutral outcome for both sides. The Bulls would reduce their spending by $371K and for a team worried about the luxury tax implications, that’s helpful.
Let’s take a look at how this NBA trade scenario featuring Jerami Grant would impact both the Chicago Bulls and Detroit Pistons.
