Indiana Pacers

Chicago Bulls Receive: G/F Buddy Hield, F/C Daniel Theis, 2023 First-Round Pick (IND), 2025 First-Round Pick (IND), 2026 First-Round Pick (Swap – IND) 
Indiana Pacers Receive: G Zach LaVine 

Heading into this season, the Indiana Pacers didn’t profile as a team that could entertain giving up their upcoming first-round pick. Life changes quickly in the NBA. 

At 16-16, this rebuild appears to be ahead of schedule. Tyrese Haliburton looks the part of a franchise player. Benedict Mathurin may not be far behind. Why not go for it?

Speaking of Mathurin, some will protest that he’s an off-guard. We’re not concerned. Mathurin is 6’6 and a physical player – he can survive the three. 

Meanwhile, there’s nothing complicated at play for the Bulls here. They’re flipping LaVine for two first-round picks and a swap again.
