If we're presented with the opportunity to get off Jerami's contract, we should consider it. Getting young, and fast, should be a priority for the Blazers. We've got to find guys that fit with this team's timeline, and we need to have the money to sign the young guys when their rookie contracts end.

DeRozen can replace Brogdon as the veteran presence for this team. Scoot in particular could learn so much from him.

Ball would be an interesting problem for the Blazers to have. If he never ends up never playing basketball again, so be it. If he does, then the Blazers will have four guards with all-star potential. If Ball is able to showcase his talents again in 2025, then we can trade one of Scoot, Anfernee, or Ball depending who has the most upside (Not even gonna entertain it being Sharpe).

Patrick Williams give us younger player at the power forward spot, and it would be interesting to see how his rebounding and defense positively impact the Blazers opening lineup.

I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on the Bulls, or to fully understand what their needs are, but it's hard to imagine Grant and Brogdon as anything other than an upgrade for them. Fans and media make it out to seem they're on the cusp of tearing everything done, and enter full rebuild mode. I'm skeptical.

I see both front office's pulling the trigger on this one. Cronin has no qualms trading away talent for financial reasons. DeRozen would sell tickets, especially if he's helping us close out games in miraculous fashion.
