The Chicago Bulls are patiently creating a roster built to be a perennial playoff contender, not just a Play-In regular. Given their penchant for creating havoc, forcing turnovers and subsequently drowning their opposition in never-ending depth and athleticism, swinging a trade for Indiana Pacers wing Bennedict Mathurin would make sense.
And considering that the Pacers, without star point guard Tyrese Haliburton, are cemented at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, Mathurin could be on the trade block sooner rather than later.
It would behoove Bulls Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations Arturas Karnisovas to kick the tires on the 23-year-old and debate adding him to a growing group that may enhance Mathurin's strengths and cover for his weaknesses.
