"Our not-so-subtly tanking Chicago Bulls - losers of five of their last six games - are currently slotted into Tankathon 's No. 13 pick. But now that they've ditched Nikola Vucevic, Coby White, Kevin Huerter, Dario Saric, and Jevon Carter for a cumulative haul of Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton, Ousmane Dieng and five second-round picks, and essentially an upgraded second-round pick, the Bulls are incredibly tiny up front."
"The BYU freshman wing has been on the ascent of late. He now holds a new NCAA record as the youngest college player ever to notch a 30-point triple-double, achieving that feat on Dec. 22 against Eastern Washington. He also obliterated nemesis Utah with a 43-point performance Jan. 24. Dybantsa is in a three-man race for the No. 1 seed this year, against Duke forward Cameron Boozer and oft-hurt Kansas guard Darryn Peterson."
The Chicago Bulls have been losing intentionally, dropping five of six games and occupying Tankathon 's No. 13 pick. They traded Nikola Vucevic, Coby White, Kevin Huerter, Dario Saric and Jevon Carter for Anfernee Simons, Jaden Ivey, Collin Sexton, Ousmane Dieng and five second-round picks, leaving an extremely small frontcourt and reducing immediate playoff prospects. Coby White's Hornets are on a seven-game win streak and sit one game behind Chicago. BYU freshman AJ Dybantsa set an NCAA record as the youngest player with a 30-point triple-double and scored 43 points versus Utah, elevating his top-prospect status. Alabama sophomore Labaron Philon has improved three-point accuracy to 38.3 percent on 5.8 attempts per game, raising his draft appeal as a backcourt option.
