Chicago Bulls: 3 teams that should be in the Thad Young sweepstakes

Over the weekend, more trade rumors came about for the Chicago Bulls management involving a name that seemingly can’t get his name off the trade block during his first two seasons with the team. The veteran 32-year-old forward Thaddeus Young is reportedly getting more trade interest from “several” teams around the NBA landscape less than one month ahead of the deadline.

Come the March 25 trade deadline, the Bulls have a lot of chips on the table that could be consequential over the long haul. Depending on what the new front office regime of first-year executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley decides to do for a deadline plan, the course of this rebuild could be altered.

Young is coming through as one of the more reliable, productive, and efficient Bulls players so far this season. He is responding from a down campaign in his inaugural run with the Bulls last season under former head coach Jim Boylen. This season is showing that first-year head coach Billy Donovan is making much more effective usage out of Young thus far.

As one of the most efficient players on this team thus far, and a dark horse contender for Sixth Man of the Year in the NBA, Young is doing great things for the Bulls. Moving forward, he looks to be one of the hottest commodities among names mentioned on the trade block this year.

Here’s a look into three of the best potential landing spots for Young if the Bulls do part ways with him at the deadline. These are three that definitely should be in on the Young trade sweepstakes.
