Bulls Rumors: Bucks taking ‘aggressive’ stance pursuing Goran Dragic

The Bulls rumors will continue to pour in on the buyout market even in the midst of the All-Star Break. And one of the names to watch right now for the Bulls on the buyout market is the former Toronto Raptors and Miami Heat veteran 35-year-old point guard Goran Dragic.

It looks like the Bulls are clearly in on the sweepstakes to sign the one-time All-Star selection and 2013-14 Most Improved Player Dragic off the buyout market in the days and/or weeks ahead. But there are multiple other suitors among postseason contenders around the NBA also trying to win this battle to sign Dragic.

One of those teams to watch looks to be the Bulls’ Central Division foe, Milwaukee Bucks. A report from ESPN NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski late this week signaled how the Bucks are taking an “aggressive” approach on trying to sign Dragic off the buyout market.

This will obviously create some competition with the other teams around the NBA looking to sign Dragic. The reigning NBA Champion Bucks could offer a solid landing spot for Dragic off the buyout market. And they’re clearly showing the commitment they have to make it work with Dragic in their rotation down the stretch this season.

But that doesn’t mean that other suitors going after Dragic on the buyout market right now couldn’t also offer a solid landing spot for him for the remainder of the season. Some other teams to watch that are trying to sign Dragic at this point of the season are the Bulls, Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, and Brooklyn Nets, among a couple of other teams.

The Bulls have already signed one player off the buyout market so far this offseason in the former Indiana Pacers and Sacramento Kings big man Tristan Thompson. It looks like the front office is still trying to make moves on the buyout market, though, with Dragic.
