A lot of attention is being paid right now to the Boston Celtics right now and what the future of key stars like point guard Kemba Walker, and forward Jaylen Brown, and Jayson Tatum, will be with the team. The Celtics promoted head coach Brad Stevens to a lead front office role in the wake of the departure of Kevin McHale entering their portion of the offseason. And considering a positional need that is important for the Chicago Bulls this summer, there could be something brewing with the Celtics in the Windy City once again.

One of the bigger moves at the trade deadline for the Bulls front office involved a deal with the Celtics. The Bulls shipped off a few pieces, including center Luke Kornet, to Boston for a return of center Daniel Theis and shooting guard Javonte Green back on deadline day on March 25.

There could be more key players from the Celtics on the move soon too. According to a report from Bleacher Report on June 9, both the Celtics and Kemba “want a break up” this coming offseason in the wake of the recent turmoil and a disappointing end to the 2020-21 season.

Can Chicago Bulls take advantage of the chaos with Kemba Walker and the Celtics?

Walker would likely be the first trade target that comes to mind in terms of what the Bulls could get from the Celtics. With some big changes likely on the way for the Celtics roster build this summer, there’s a really good chance that Kemba will be playing elsewhere next season.

Here’s a look into three reasons why Kemba could be a good fit with the Bulls if the Celtics are going to part ways with him this offseason.
