Chicago Bulls Trade Taj Gibson, Doug McDermott: What Bulls are getting and giving up in deal

The trade deadline has passed and the Chicago Bulls have made a deal.

After days of everyone stalking Twitter waiting for the potential blockbuster deal of sending Jimmy Butler to the Boston Celtics, Chicago has made a deal that’s minor in comparison to that.

Shams Charania of The Vertical first reported the trade.

The deal sends Taj Gibson and Doug McDermott to the Oklahoma City Thunder, while the Bulls will receive Cameron Payne back along with Anthony Morrow and Joffrey Lauvergne to match salaries. The Bulls also gave a 2018 second-round pick to OKC.
