4 teams that could steal Naz Reid from the Timberwolves
By Elaine Blum
3. Chicago Bulls
After a rather disappointing season, the Bulls might make some moves to overhaul their roster. Their big three of Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, and Nikola Vucevic did not pan out as they had hoped it would and if their All-Star center is on the way out, the Bulls need a replacement.
It all really depends on how far the Bulls go. Will they give their big three another chance? Will they just keep one or two of them and retool the roster around those pieces? Or will they blow it up completely? In each scenario, Reid could address some of their needs. He could be a backup big or step into a starting role for a rebuilding squad for a while, or maybe even long-term if things work out.
This season, the Bulls made the fewest threes in the league. Adding a center with a solid outside shot will not fix that problem, but it would at least be a start and give them a certain edge. Nowadays, everyone wants a big who can be a threat all over the court and stretch the floor well.
Reid could certainly be a solid fit in Chicago but depending on which way the Bulls decide to go with their team, they might not be able to offer him as much money as some other teams. Compared to Minnesota, his role would increase, though, so it is still worth considering.
