Why The Chicago Bulls Do The Deal
This would be a bold move for Chicago. It’s certainly a risk.
Giving up your draft rights always is. Meanwhile, their pick in the upcoming draft is likely to head to the Orlando Magic. That means two years in a row where the Bulls aren’t adding any young talent.
Sure. On the other hand, they’re adding Karl-Anthony Towns. This is one of the best offensive big men in NBA history. With some solid free-agent signings, this should make them a better team.

Towns’ partnership with DeMar DeRozan makes sense too. His ability to space the floor will offset DeRozan’s shooting woes. Meanwhile, Towns will benefit from DeRozan’s strong playmaking as well.
This time, Chicago’s hard work may just pay off.
