Thunder- OKC needs rebounding. After allowing 21 rebounds to Jalen Duren in a devastating loss to the league worst Pistons, this issue is at its peak. Drummond is still only 30 and on a cheap contract, and is averaging 8.3 rebounds per game. They give up 2 seconds and Tre Mann but the Thunder have so many picks this doesn’t matter that much. He also provides experience to a very young team
Bulls- Chicago is going nowhere fast with this team and Drummond’s trade value is only going to decrease. They sell now for the 2 seconds and Tre Mann who is still young and could turn into something. This also starts the rest of the rebuild and should lead to future trades involving Lavine, Derozan, and Vucevic
