The Chicago Bulls are one of the teams that will be active in next year's NBA Draft. They have the seventh overall pick, and while it is still likely for them to get a quality prospect with their pick, this is not what they had hoped for pre-Draft Lottery.

If everything went their way, the Bulls would be picking in the top 4 of the draft, but the changes made in the lottery rules allowed them to slide down to seventh. And in a draft class that's considered to be top-3 heavy, Chicago might be open to trading their pick. according to reports.

There have been speculations that the Bulls will be willing to trade the seventh overall pick to the Los Angeles Lakers for former second overall pick Lonzo Ball, but since the Purple and Gold are prioritizing the Anthony Davis negotiations at the moment, Chicago might want to consider other options.

The Bulls are not after a top-tier star. What they're looking for is a young player that can help them in their rebuilding phase, which is why going for Ball was one of their top priorities. However, acquiring multiple picks or a veteran player could be in play for Chicago as well.

Chicago could use the seventh overall pick or one of their young assets in a trade to get another first-rounder in next week's draft. As of this writing, there are no rumors of them being engaged in trade talsk with other teams, but expect that to change within the next couple of days.
