Obviously he’s not in the Bulls plans
I guess we’ll see if they trade Lonzo. Maybe Giddey is the sweetener to get rid of Levine

I mean it would be a surprise if Lonzo was really healthy.

Didn't Lonzo say he was coming back this year finally? How will that work with Giddey?
It's called ball movement.....you know like the Warriors?

Not to mention Ball isn't known for staying on the court with the Bulls and Giddey can play multiple positions.

List of players with more triple doubles than Giddey at the age of 21.

Luka
Oscar
Magic
Ben Simmons
Lebron

Only one of those players also was pulled from games for being outmatched.

They could trade Lavine, let DeRozan walk and buyout Ball and go with a youth movement.

Which would be made much easier if they had pulled at least one pick from OKC.

That's a nice cherry picking stat.

Most guys actually do a year or more in college.

So, they come in the league older.

If you compare him to guys in the first 3 years in the NBA, he's not top 10.

* But still impressive *

If you compare him to Ben and Luka based on games played, they double and triple him up.

The guy can pass.

But the fact that he is unplayable at the end of games devalues him.

Luka has been pretty bad on defense, historically.

Ditto for Trae Young and even a guy like D'angelo Russell.

Their scoring keeps them on the floor.

Giddey's does not.

Call it what you want, it’s enough to make him intriguing and is why the Bulls wanted him. The guy isn’t done, far from it.
