With the Chicago Bulls trading away Jimmy Butler, a source says the team is focused on getting a top-4 pick in next year's draft.
The Bulls are high on Michael Porter Jr. while Luka Doncic, DeAndre Ayton and Mohamed Bamba are also expected to be high level prospects in the 2018 draft class.
“We’re not going to be throwing huge money at people right out of the gate,’’ John Paxson recently said of free agency.
The Bulls want to keep their young core intact while maximizing their lottery odds.
