Chicago Bulls mock trade flips DeMar DeRozan, Patrick Williams

This mock trade would see the Chicago Bulls ditch DeMar DeRozan and Patrick Williams in a five-player deal.

If the Chicago Bulls want to be a serious playoff threat in the Eastern Conference next season, they need to make some big changes. And while that may be the direction Arturas Karnisovas is determined to go in, it may be beneficial for the Bulls to explore potential teardown moves.

With DeMar DeRozan heading into the final year of his contract, trading him now for some sort of value could be a good idea. Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times believes Chicago should call up a team they made a blockbuster trade with just two years ago – the Orlando Magic. There could be a deal to be made.

Cowley suggested a trade that would send DeRozan and Patrick Williams to the Magic in exchange for some young assets, some role players, and a draft pick.
