Prior to re-signing Josh Giddey, the Bulls had a relatively quiet offseason, but they did make one significant move: acquiring Isaac Okoro from the Cavaliers in a trade that could benefit all parties. Okoro adds a crucial element the Bulls were missing and is expected to play a key role as their primary defensive stopper.
Okoro is an absolute lockdown perimeter defender. He’s gone toe-to-toe with some of the best players in the league and shut them down or, at the very least, made life difficult for them. A couple of seasons ago, he was on the short list of the very best isolation defenders in the NBA.
