Brooklyn Nets Land Nikola Vucevic

Chicago Bulls Receive: G/F Joe Harris, F/C Day’Ron Sharpe, 2028 First-Round PIck (Swap – BKN) 

Brooklyn Nets Receive: C Nikola Vucevic 

Obviously, we’re using similar logic here. This trade again has the Nets landing a stretch big man. 

This one just doesn’t protect the rim very well. That’s why the Nets are paying a lower price. Consider it a trade-off. 

Adding Nikola Vucevic should still juice this offense. In fact, he can spend time as a passing hub as well. Even with his defensive shortcomings, he ought to make the Nets a better team. 

Meanwhile, these Chicago Bulls are obviously falling apart. They’re widely regarded as strong candidates for a fire sale as the trade deadline approaches. In all likelihood, a young player and a pick swap is a fair return for Vucevic.

On the other hand, the Nets may not see the need to add a stretch big man. If they’d rather just bolster their depth, they’ll prefer this next deal.
