The bull player that may be commercially available is Thaddeus Young

Feel free to ignore the rumors about Knicks and Nets’ interest in Zach LaVine. It’s not that the New York teams wouldn’t be interested if the 25-point wing was available, it’s that the Bulls’ new front office is trying to figure out which way it wants to go and LaVine (with two years left on his contract) can be part of that future. Chicago has no plans to exchange LaVine.

The bull who might be available in an exchange? Thaddeus Young.

The one according to KC Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago.

In fact, according to the leaders of two other teams, Thad Young, not LaVine, is the most readily available player. This is largely based on Young’s displeasure over the role and use of last season, for his agreement in favor of the team that brings only a partial guarantee in 2021-22 and for his reliability and professionalism.

NBA veteran who gave the Bulls nearly 25 minutes and 10.3 points a game, while shooing 35.3% from three. He gets his points without needing plays run for him. More importantly, he’s a quality defender who can disrupt passing lanes with his 7’1″ wingspan. A number of teams could use him at the four to stretch the floor and give them quality minutes every night." data-reactid="28">Young, 32, is a solid 13-year-old NBA veteran who gave the bulls nearly 25 minutes and 10.3 points per game, while he got 35.3% from three. He gets his points without needing games for him. More importantly, he is a quality defender who can interrupt passage lanes with his wingspan of 7’1 “. A number of teams could use it at four to stretch the floor and give them quality minutes every night.

Young is two years old, with $ 27.7 million left in his contract, a very reasonable number for production. This makes it very marketable.

Everything will depend on which direction the new front office of Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley will decide to take the franchise. If Jim Boylen is out as a coach, Young may want to stay and play for the new boss, getting a role he likes best. If Boylen remains (which seems increasingly likely, he saves money in times of economic crisis for the league and allows the new front office to save the “change manager” card for another negative year after). Young will want to leave.

Look for Young’s name appearing in business discussions as we enter the low season.
