Chicago Bulls: 3 potential trades with the Sixers for Joel Embiid

Maybe the most interesting and complex trade package on this list between the Sixers and Chicago Bulls is the first one here. The Bulls send out third-year power forward Lauri Markkanen to the Sixers along with rising star shooting guard Zach LaVine to be the centerpieces of who lands in Philadelphia.

The Bulls are also sending the $27 million man and former Washington Wizards small forward Otto Porter Jr. to pair with a future lottery protected first round draft pick. The Sixers would need a lot of draft help in this potential trade package if they are to give up both Embiid and the former Boston Celtics stud big man Al Horford.

The final piece that the Bulls throw into the trade package here is two future second round draft picks. The Bulls do have to mortgage a good portion of their future draft capital and franchise cornerstones away to land Embiid and Horford. This would put them in a win now mode, granted one that the fan base was itching to get into.

All of the trade value that Markkanen still carries given his insane physical tools and skill set as a versatile playmaker and good outside shooter is something that the Sixers have to buy into. LaVine is obviously a rising star that can help the backcourt scoring ability of the Sixers and Porter Jr. fills a positional need for them on the wing.
