Trae Young trade should have Bulls worried about Coby White's fatal flaw

The Atlanta Hawks gave up on superstar point guard Trae Young in large part because of his disastrous defense. Unfortunately, the Chicago Bulls will struggle to trade Coby White -- or at least to get a decent return -- for the same reason.

Outside of Josh Giddey or Matas Buzelis, neither of whom is going anywhere, White is Chicago's most valuable asset. Ayo Dosunmu is a better two-way guard, but White is the team's most talented scorer and all-around offensive player.

His status as an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season will diminish his trade value; he'll likely command a contract worth about $25 million annually.
