In a new trade idea, the Bulls do part with Ball for a former NBA champion. The deal would be between Chicago and the Los Angeles Clippers, sending Ball back to Los Angeles. Using the Spotrac trade machine and abiding by the CBA restrictions in place, here is what a deal could look like:

Looking at Lonzo Ball’s on-court performance alone, pitching him to other teams shouldn’t be difficult for the Chicago Bulls. But everything about Ball comes with a caveat.

The Chicago Bulls entered Los Angeles on a five-game losing streak and as a major underdog against a Clippers team that won four games in a row. Somehow, the Chicago Bulls found a way to win very convincingly against a red-hot Clippers team.
