DeMar DeRozan lands in Golden State in this audacious trade idea

The Chicago Bulls’ star player DeMar DeRozan has not been mentioned much in relation to a contract extension, which has many

wondering if he will stay in the Windy City. As soon as the trade deadline of February 8 arrives, the answer will be clear.

Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report has developed a fascinating trade proposal involving the Golden State Warriors in the event that the

Bulls choose to acquire whatever assets they can in exchange for DeRozan.

The Bulls will send guard Jevon Carter and experienced but frequently injured guard Chris Paul to the Warriors in Buckley’s proposed

trade, in exchange for wingman Moses Moody, a 2026 first-round selection (top-three protected), a 2026 second-round pick (via

ATL), and a 2028 second-round pick (via ATL).

This deal, if consummated, would benefit the Warriors a great deal. It’s no secret how Golden State wants to give superstar Stephen

Curry all the help he needs as he nears the end of his prime. By getting DeRozan, they get a terrific scorer who can take some of the

offensive load off Curry’s shoulders. Additionally, Carter provides depth at the guard position and

adds some defensive grit to their backcourt.

However, the Bulls would gain from this transaction in a number of ways as well. Above all, they would have gained an experienced

court general in Paul, who could offer the team invaluable leadership and wise counsel to young talent Coby White. In addition,

Moody—a youthful wing player with promise on both sides of the court—would be acquired by them.
