Why the Bulls should split up Kris Dunn and Zach LaVine

The inevitable for Kris Dunn could actually wind up being what saves him.

If you’ve read, heard or seen anything from the Bulls offseason, you’re aware that the Bulls have seen enough to end the experiment on Kris Dunn as the long-term starter. He may begin 2019 there, especially if the Bulls draft a point guard at No. 7, but he’d only be keeping the seat warm for his eventual replacement.

It seems inevitable that Dunn will move a bench role this upcoming season. It’s a sobering reality for a player just four years removed from being the fifth overall pick now playing on a 22-win team, but a reality nonetheless.
