Frequently Asked Questions
What would the Bulls get in return for trading Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan?
The Bulls would receive RJ Barrett, Mitchell Robinson, Obi Toppin, Jonathan Kuminga, and four first-round picks (Warriors 2023 & 2025, Knicks 2025 & 2027). They would also get their cap space reset while acquiring young talent to develop.
Why would the Warriors want to trade Klay Thompson for Zach LaVine?
LaVine is an upgrade over Thompson and can help the Warriors win right now around an aging Stephen Curry. The Warriors' new management would be mortgaging their future to put together the best possible roster for their current championship window.
How much money could DeMar DeRozan get on his next contract?
DeRozan is extension eligible for a contract worth up to $154 million over the next four years. He's turning 34 years old, making this potentially his last big payday.
What players would the Knicks get in this three-team trade?
The Knicks would receive Klay Thompson, DeMar DeRozan, and Alex Caruso. DeRozan could be the final puzzle piece around Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle, while Thompson and Caruso bring championship experience.
How many first-round picks would the Bulls get for LaVine, DeRozan, and Caruso?
The Bulls would receive four first-round picks total - the Warriors' 2023 and 2025 picks, plus the Knicks' 2025 and 2027 first-rounders. This haul would help them rebuild through the draft while developing young talent.
