NBA Trade Rumors: Jahlil Okafor Moves In With Bulls; Denzel Valentine, Doug McDermott To Trade For 76ers?

NBA trade rumors are circling all over as famous NBA teams are either moving to maintain balance in their ranks, or strengthen their rosters. Recently, the Philadelphia 76ers' have been on the hunt to trade Jahlil Okafor for Bulls' Denzel Valentine and Doug McDermott, according to Morning News USA.

The 76ers' are on the lookout for huge shooters for its team, with Jahlil Okafor's name coming out as the probable candidate for the trade. Aside from Okafor, the NBA team is also putting out Joel Embiid and Nerlens Noel.

While the 76ers' are busy pondering on who to receive for the trade-in talks for Jahlil Okafor, another team is saying that it could rally on that decision for team players from their own team.

The Chicago Bulls, whose team name also keeps popping up for those trade rumors, are said willing to trade Doug McDermott and Denzel Valentine for Jahlil Okafor of the 76ers. Both Bulls' players are pretty good shots playing for the 76ers, who could deliver the floor space needed by the 76ers' forward Ben Simmons.

On the other hand, 76ers' GM Bryan Colangelo has been setting his sights on an "exceptional trade package" as their team is already packed with good centers Noel, Embiid, and Okafor, in a related Sportsrageous post. The trade involving Jahlil Okafor to the Bulls would be a win-win scenario, since Chicago is Okafor's hometown team.

Colangelo added that anyone looking at their own roster would tell it is rather unbalanced and top heavy as of the moment. The 76ers' have good talent, and are in the process of aligning their ranks.

76ers fans have also added Jimmy Butler's name into the mix, and are notedly asking for the shooting guard/small forward ingenue. That could work out well for everyone involved too.
