The Chicago Bulls continue to pursue a trade with the Philadelphia 76ers for Jahlil Okafor.

Okafor has been on the trading block by the 76ers for several weeks.

Okafor is a native of Chicago and was the third overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft out of Duke.

The 76ers would prefer to trade Okafor instead of Nerlens Noel as they look to balance their roster.
