NBA trade season has cooled off somewhat. With most teams nearly finalizing their rosters, there aren’t many big NBA deals expected to be completed between now and the start of next season. That said, there are almost always surprise trades in the final weeks of the summer, so perhaps this offseason can still produce a few.
The Chicago Bulls were one of the teams that were expected to be very active this offseason, and while they have already traded DeMar DeRozan (sign-and-trade) and Alex Caruso, they still have players on their roster that don’t fit the rebuilding timeline.
Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic are the two veterans most talked about in trade rumors, but the Bulls have other players who could interest championship contenders.
In a recent article, Grant Hughes of Bleacher Report proposed a hypothetical trade that would send Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu to the Milwaukee Bucks.

Dosumnu averaged a career-high 12.2 points last season while shooting an impressive 50.1 percent from the field and 40.3 percent from three-point range.
If Dosumnu continues his hot streak, the 24-year-old point guard will be looking for a big payday when he hits free agency after the 2025-26 season. That’s why Bleacher Report suggests the Bulls might consider trading him now instead of potentially losing him in free agency while they’re likely still in the midst of a rebuild.
