The Chicago Bulls have been involved in a few rumors this offseason and none of them have been true or came to fruition. One thing that is true, the Bulls front office loves making deals when everyone’s watching on draft night.
In the Gar Forman and John Paxson era, the Bulls have made trades during the NBA Draft like we use the ESPN Trade Machine. Not all of them have worked, actually, most of them haven’t.
The Bulls have drafted and traded Norris Cole (2011), Gary Harris (2013), Jusuf Nurkic (2013), Jordan Bell (2017) immediately after selecting them.
