It was the big move of deadline day for first-year Chicago Bulls executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley. The Bulls landed the now former Orlando Magic star big man Nikola Vucevic along with forward Al-Farouq Aminu in exchange for a host of players and future draft capital.
The pieces included by Karnisovas and the Bulls in that deal to bring Vucevic to the Windy City included two future first round draft picks (each lottery-protected in their own right) along with veteran small forward Otto Porter Jr.
