With the 2023–24 regular season winding down, fans of the San Antonio Spurs are probably eagerly awaiting the offseason. With potentially two top-10 picks and cap space, they have a chance to make a big splash, though a big trade isn't out of the question.

San Antonio has been linked to both Atlanta Hawks star guards. In fact, most Spurs fans have probably already mulled over potential offers that would put either of them in the Silver and Black next season. That leads us to a fascinating blockbuster trade proposal by Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report that would include not only the Spurs and Hawks but the Chicago Bulls.

Much like with the Hawks, the Bulls were recently fleeced by San Antonio, putting them in a precarious situation going forward. They gave up a lightly protected first-round pick that could convey in 2025, 2026, or 2027 in the DeMar DeRozan sign-and-trade. They probably regret that since they will have a tough time retooling while also trying to keep their lottery pick.

That could potentially make them amendable to another deal, but would a 3-team swap help all three teams or just the Spurs? Next, we'll grade the trade!
