Bulls Free Agency Reset: Kelly Oubre, Melton & Trade Candidates After Zach Collins Deal
Description
🚨 Bulls fans… the free agency board has officially shifted. 🐂🔥
After a quiet Day 1, the Chicago Bulls brought back Zach Collins on a two-year, $17 million deal — but now the big question is: what is Bryson Graham’s next move? 👀💰
With several rumored Bulls targets already off the board — including Jock Landale, Luke Kennard, Tim Hardaway Jr., Keon Ellis, Landry Shamet, and Dean Wade — Chicago’s focus should be crystal clear:
🎯 Find a starting-level shooting guard or wing
🔥 Add reliable three-point shooting
🧱 Improve perimeter defense
👀 Do it without blocking Dailyn Swain’s development
On today’s episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down the Bulls’ best remaining free agency options, including Kelly Oubre Jr., De’Anthony Melton, Quentin Grimes, Bruce Brown, Gary Trent Jr., Seth Curry, Malik Beasley, Andre Drummond, Kevon Looney, and Moe Wagner.
Could Kelly Oubre Jr. be the cleanest fit left? Is De’Anthony Melton the best two-way guard value? Should the Bulls still monitor Quentin Grimes if the Lakers deal is not official? And after bringing back Collins, should Chicago completely stop chasing bigs?
Plus, Haize dives into the part of free agency fans can’t ignore: trade candidates. With the roster getting crowded after adding Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Nic Claxton, Zach Collins, and Kam Jones, could names like Patrick Williams, Isaac Okoro, Jalen Smith, Tre Jones, or Leonard Miller be moved to balance the roster? 👀
The Bulls still need shooting. They still need guard/wing help. And the next move has to make life easier for Josh Giddey, Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Matas Buzelis, Nic Claxton, and Rob Dillingham — not harder.
