NBA Trade Update: Chris Bosh, Dwayne Wade Reunion Eyed In Chicago For Next Season; Goran Dragic May Also Move

By

Chris Bosh is definitely out for the season. But if he decides to comeback, there is one team willing to sign him up-the Bulls.

Bosh last played in February 2016 and has since been sidelined due to a nagging blood clot condition. A report that appeared in SB Nation, however, revealed that the Bulls are already planning for a run next season and they will be first in line to sign him. There is one problem though-Bosh still has two years left in his contract with Miami where he will be receiving $52 million after this season.

Miami has the option to waive his contract and free their salary cap. However, an ESPN report revealed that other teams do not expect Bosh to be waived until March 1, the deadline set by the league for teams wanting to sign playoff-eligible players.

Acquiring Bosh would be beneficial to Chicago especially in their power forward position. With Taj Gibson becoming an unrestricted free agent and Nikola Mirotic focusing on being a three-point shooter, Bosh would give Chicago stability in the power forward position. Bosh won two titles in Miami with Dwayne Wade and a reunion with his partner would give Bosh his best shot at winning another title.

In 53 games last year, Bosh averaged 19.1 points and 7.4 rebounds per game with a 37 percent clip from the 3-point range.

Another potential trade rumor that is generating buzz is the likely transfer of Goran Dragic. According to the website of Sports Fan 100.5, Orlando tried to deal with Miami for the services of Goran Dragic. The Magic reportedly offered Nikola Vucevic and a future first-round pick.

Miami would not bite into the deal as they already have an accomplished center in Hassan Whiteside. One thing is clear the Heat is unlikely to move Dragic until after the Feb. 23 deadline.
