Bulls Land Claxton in Major Trade

Chicago Bulls pull off a blockbuster three-team trade right before the draft, acquiring Nic Claxton from the Nets while sending Julius Randle and a late pick to Minnesota in exchange for a higher draft pick. The deal fills a critical need at center with Claxton’s rim protection and youth, while freeing up salary for future signings. The Nets gain an All-Star big man and a better draft position, shedding cap space. Bulls still retain ample cap room despite Claxton’s hefty contract, setting the stage for a competitive rebuild.
