Chicago Bulls: 3 players most likely to be traded before deadline

The Chicago Bulls continue to disappoint as the season rolls past the halfway point. As the trade deadline nears, here are three players the Bulls are most likely to move.

The Chicago Bulls, with their 10-33 record, are clearly not in the race for the Eastern Conference playoffs. Instead, the Bulls are focusing on the future and player development. Already having moved forward Justin Holiday to the Memphis Grizzlies, the team still has more moves it can make before the Feb. 7 trade deadline.

The trade deadline represents another opportunity for personnel changes for the franchise. Fred Hoiberg, who started the season as head coach, has already been fired. Assistant coach Randy Brown resigned following Jim Boylen being appointed head coach without the interim title. Then, with the season already a disaster, Boylen survived a near mutiny just a week into the job.

With all the chaos the Bulls have experienced this season, it’s time to kick the rebuild into a higher gear. The focus for the remainder of the season is developing the young roster. With Lauri Markkanen, Zach LaVine, Kris Dunn and Wendell Carter Jr., the front office has put together a nice group of talented players.

Here are three players most likely to be moved before the trade deadline in February.
