Why The Chicago Bulls Do The Deal
Yes. The Bulls need Maxi Kleber badly enough to move Coby White.
In 2021-22, the Bulls started Nikola Vucevic at the 5. Unfortunately, he had a significantly down year in terms of three-point accuracy. If Vooch isn’t hitting his threes, he doesn’t do a lot for your cause.
After all, he’s not exactly a defensive presence. By contrast, Kleber is. He may no be a household name, but he’s a strong rim protector with quick enough feet to cover the perimeter when he’s required to.
He also, like Vucevic, spaces the floor. Kleber is exactly the type of player who could improve the Bulls ahead of next season. With Christian Wood recently landing in Dallas, he may be expendable as well. The frontcourt is suddenly looking pretty crowded in Dallas.
