After landing Tomas Satoransky from the Wizards, the Chicago Bulls could be looking to sent out Kris Dunn to lighten up the backcourt load.
Since the Chicago Bulls stayed so active in the first two days in free agency, seeking out a lot of different ways to utilize the cap space the front office had available, the clock could be running out on Kris Dunn and his time here. Dunn was the starting point guard for the Bulls heading into the 2018-19 regular season, but looked to at least be out of that role heading into this offseason.
With all the moves that the Bulls front office made in the 2019 NBA Draft and at the outset of this free agency cycle, Dunn could be on the move here soon. The idea of a trade looming with Dunn involved emerged for Bulls fans before the 2019 NBA Trade Deadline even arrived.
Now, Jake Fischer of Sports Illustrated reports on his Twitter timeline that the Bulls could be looking for a trade deal that would move Dunn out. Since the Bulls landed point guard Tomas Satoransky from the Washington Wizards on July 1 in a sign-and-trade deal, the Bulls have a crowded backcourt.

Satoransky also adds to a Bulls backcourt that features 2019 NBA Draft seventh overall pick and former North Carolina Tar Heels point guard Coby White and restricted free agent Ryan Arcidiacono. The Bulls don’t have to get rid of Arcidiacono just because they acquired Satoransky. If Dunn is moved out, then Aricidiacono could still fill the role of a third point guard in this rotation.
Here’s a look into three potential trade packages that the Chicago Bulls could put together to ship out Kris Dunn to another team.
