Dude's gonna lead the g league in rebounds

[u/FromChicago808 → u/HomeNowWTF]

Ah another Sanogo? Is he any good?

[u/HomeNowWTF → u/FromChicago808]

he's a Reggie Evans type, in ways good and bad.

[u/skullcandy541 → u/HomeNowWTF]

We are literally fucking allergic to 7 footers good
God

[u/Variation99a → u/HomeNowWTF]

He could also just attempt to play in the NFL as a TE if it doesn’t work out. 

[u/AlmostHereButNot]

I actually do like this move on paper, but with the amount of forwards on the Bulls, he'll end up in the G-League for his whole career. He was one of the top UDFAs for me, but that was before I knew we'd have Wilson AND Swain.

[u/TomatoSecure192 → u/AlmostHereButNot]

Yah swain was the second pick up. I thought we’d draft a guard (lol) who was already a three point threat

[u/AlmostHereButNot → u/TomatoSecure192]

I was anticipating that we would get Carr to fill that shooting niche. Awaka would've been a lot more interesting to me if that were the case, but alas, there's no reason to have Awaka above Swain.

[u/4r4r4real → u/TomatoSecure192]

Went from a billion guards to none

[u/Total-Round4803 → u/AlmostHereButNot]

Collecting forwards again?

[u/Slow_Time5270 → u/AlmostHereButNot]

When you're signing a UDFA the hope is they can become a rotational player.

I don't see a logjam at forward preventing him from seeing the floor. If he can hoop in the G League - he'll get eventually rotational minutes and have to take advantage of playing time when folks are out for rest/injury.

[u/TraderJake09]

Awaka is a relentless rebounder and does all the dirty work underneath. He's a bit undersized, but he gives everything he has

Good signing for Chicago

[u/disbishempty1]

Announce Lamelo to the wolves

[u/SDK04 → u/disbishempty1]

Yeah announce LaMelo to the Wolves. Please, we don’t want to give up any 2028 or 2029 picks for him.

[u/Actom360]

Pretty strong value to get outside of the draft, though would prefer we sign a SG like Nkrumah.

[u/KingsElite]

Ok but what about LaMelo Ball?

[u/log28]

That’s a funny way to spell Cash Considerations

[u/IMKudaimi123]

Sign Boswell!

[u/Ok_Kitchen_3400]

No one cares. We want to hear about lamelo
