Mandatory Credit: Soobum Im-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With Vucevic&#8217;s deal expiring after this season, the Bulls could at least get an asset in return before he heads to free agency. But that might not be the case and instead, the Bulls could keep him. At least that&#8217;s what one NBA reporter believes.<\/p>\n<p>Per <a href=\"https:\/\/basketnews.com\/news-239490-nikola-vucevic-trade-rumors-bulls-centers-future-confirmed.html\">Jake Fischer<\/a>, it&#8217;s expected that Vucevic will remain in Chicago through the trade deadline. Here is what Fischer wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It makes sense for the Bulls to be looking at possible centers of the future, knowing that Nikola Vucevic is in the final year of his contract. Multiple sources this week stressed that it&#8217;s now unlikely that Vucevic gets dealt before the deadline,&#8221; Fischer wrote in his latest report.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s believed that Vucevic, should he enter free agency this summer after playing out his three-year deal with the Bulls, will generate some strong interest from teams looking at a longtime starter believed to be open to a more complementary role in the right situation \u2026 similar to Al Horford during last summer&#8217;s free agency.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With the NBA trade deadline under two weeks away, things could change. However, as it stands now it feels like he will remain a member of the Bulls.<\/p>\n<p>The 35-year-old is having a solid season averaging 17.0 points, 9.1 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 42 games. He should get a lot of attention as a free agent next Summer. But if the Bulls can get something in return for him now, they should at least explore that opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chicago Bulls find themselves in a familiar place.
