On June 26, according to Bulls reporter K.C. Johnson, the Chicago Bulls are currently publicly selling two-time All-Star center Nick Ravucevic. In the just-passed 2024-25 season, Vucevic played in a total of 73 regular season games for the Bulls, averaging 18.5 points, 10.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.7 blocks per game, shooting percentage of 53%, three-point shooting percentage of 40.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80.5%.

If you look at personal data alone, Vucevic is undoubtedly a very qualified starting big center. After all, he can contribute nearly 20+10 large double-double per game. It is particularly worth mentioning that since the 2018-19 season, Vucevic has been able to contribute double-double data per game every season, which is a double-double machine. But whether it is in the Orlando Magic or the Chicago Bulls today, Vucevic has limited help to the team. He is not the dominant center who can use super data to change the trend of the game! So far in his career, Vucevic has only played 16 playoff games in total, which can be reflected from the fact that Vucevic is a regular season star.

Frankly speaking, it is not surprising that the Bulls actively peddled Vucevic! After all, they are now an absolute bottom team in the Eastern Conference, so there is no need to keep a 34-year-old big center with an annual salary of more than 20 million yuan. Currently, Vucevic and the Bulls have $21.48 million in a year left in their contract. In the summer four years ago, the ambitious Bulls spent a huge amount of money to build a championship team of DeRozan + Zach Raven + Lonzo Ball + Vucevic + Caruso, but they only made it once afterwards. Now, only Vucevic and Lonzo Ball remain in Chicago, which completely declares the failure of their plan. As a result, actively selling Vucevic this summer will naturally become the top priority for the Bulls' complete reconstruction.

According to Fox reporter Evan Sidery, the Golden State Warriors were interested in Vucevic last summer, but they then gave up on such a trading idea. But then again, although Vucevic is not the kind of dominant center, he is still a big insider who can contribute double-double per game. Therefore, when the Bulls are asking for an outrageous price, Vucevic should not worry about not being able to find his next home! Especially for those teams that are in a hurry to lack inside centers, it is undoubtedly an extremely good choice, such as the Los Angeles Lakers who do not have a qualified starting center.

But it is worth mentioning that Doncic wants an ideal center is a big insider who can play all-in-one matches with him, such as Mavericks center Daniel Gafford. However, the latter just reached a three-year, $54.38 million contract extension with the Mavericks! Therefore, without the chance to introduce Gafford, the Lakers might as well consider introducing two-double machines Vucevic. What do you think about this?
