Report suggests Chicago Bulls turned down more trade offers at deadline
The Chicago Bulls are ushering in a rebuild after another disappointing 2025-26 season. Chicago made the decision to clean house, moving on from Arturas Karnisovas and Marc Eversley in the front office. From there, Billy Donovan also opted to leave the franchise.
But all of that happened after the front office made a few moves at the trade deadline, potentially trying to save their jobs.
The two moved on from key players such as Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, and Nikola Vucevic. But failed to get a single first-round pick back in any of those deals that they made. Instead, they loaded up on second-round picks which could be useful in terms of trade bait moving forward.
However, a new report suggests that the Bulls turned down more second-round picks in a potential deal.
Did Chicago Bulls turn down trade offer from Philadelphia 76ers?
The Bulls were one of the more active teams at last season’s deadline. It could have been the front office attempting to save their jobs by fully turning to a rebuild like they should have done before. While they unloaded a lot of talent, there was one player they reportedly turned down an offer for.
Per Adam Aaronson of The Philly Voice, the Philadelphia 76ers offered up second-round picks for Bulls’ big man Jalen Smith:
“The Sixers, the source said, offered the Chicago Bulls multiple second-round picks for reserve big man Jalen Smith; Chicago held onto him.”
It makes sense for the 76ers to target a big man, especially with the questions about Joel Embiid. More depth couldn’t hurt them as we saw in their second-round loss to the New York Knicks.
For Chicago, it would have made sense to unload Smith for more picks. With a new regime here, Smith probably won’t have a large role anyways.
The benefit is that he still has one year on his deal at a very friendly price tag of $9.4 million. That could be something this regime looks at but if they do move on, you have to wonder if it would have been better to get more draft picks.
