The Chicago Bulls are expected to be one of the many teams that will be on the phone this summer trying to land a big. Zion Williamson, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Nikola Vucevic could be trade targets in the offseason.

The Chicago Bulls were among the potential destinations mentioned that could interest Giannis Antetokounmpo in a trade.

During an appearance on the Zach Lowe Show, NBA insider Howard Beck named Chicago as one of the cities on Giannis Antetokounmpo's desirable teams list should the former MVP and world champion and the Milwaukee Bucks agree to part ways via trade.

The Chicago Bulls need better options in the frontcourt for the upcoming season. Veteran center Nikola Vucevic is expected to be shopped this summer and traded by the deadline in February of 2026.

The Bucks do not control their own first-round draft pick until 2031. They have 35% of a maxed-out salary cap committed to a 34-year-old Damian Lillard, who tore his left Achilles tendon in the playoffs. The back end of their rotation is full of free agents. The front end is barren beneath Antetokounmpo.

Twenty-nine general managers in the NBA are now on alert after ESPN's Shams Charania reported Monday that Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo "is open-minded about exploring whether his best long-term fit is remaining in Milwaukee or playing elsewhere.

With how things have gone for the Milwaukee Bucks, a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade seems exceptionally likely. The Chicago Bulls, along with countless other teams, have been linked at times to such a deal.
