Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vuu010deviu0107 is reportedly on the Golden State Warriors' radar as a potential trade target ahead of the Feb. 6 NBA trade deadline.

According to Anthony Slater, Marcus Thompson II and Sam Amick of The Athletic, Vuu010deviu0107 has become a "more discussed" trade option for the Warriors than Miami Heat veteran Jimmy Butler within the Warriors organization and the NBA as a whole.

Vuu010deviu0107, 34, is enjoying one of the best statistical seasons of his career, and he is signed through the 2025-26 campaign, meaning he is neither a rental nor a long-term investment.
