Chicago Bulls: 3 trades to make at the start of Training Camp

Fans shouldn’t rule out Arturas Karnisovas hitting the trade market in the near future to try and reshape this Chicago Bulls roster heading into the season.

Training Camp begins around the NBA on Dec. 1, hence the Chicago Bulls are back at the Advocate Center for meaningful workouts/camp for the first time in a couple of months. Dec. 1 marks when the Bulls do begin individual player workouts, returning to the Advocate Center. But group workouts for a more standard Training Camp routine won’t start until Dec. 6.

Then the Bulls get set to tip off their preseason schedule on Dec. 11 at home at the United Center against superstar guard James Harden and the Houston Rockets. The Bulls get the Rockets twice at home before hitting the road to face the Thunder in OKC in two games to round out the preseason slate.

There’s a lot that happened to change the look of the front office and coaching staff for the Bulls throughout this lengthy offseason. Most significant of which in the front office were the hirings of executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley.

The roster doesn’t look a whole lot different at this point, heading into Training Camp. But hitting the trade market might offer Karnisovas and Eversley a more viable path to shift the roster construction given how cap strapped they were in this cycle of free agency.

Here’s a look into three trades that the Bulls can make at the outset of Training Camp to try and move this rebuild forward heading into its fourth year.
