Josh Giddey isn't fitting alongside Chicago's young core, and the Bulls may need to trade him before he jeopardizes their future.

Writer Andrew Hanlon argues that the Chicago Bulls may need to consider trading point guard Josh Giddey to prioritize their ongoing rebuild. Despite a strong 2025-26 campaign, Giddey has struggled early this season under head coach Tiago Splitter, averaging 7.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 8.0 assists through the team's first five games.
Hanlon highlights that Giddey's reduced usage rate clashes with the development of franchise cornerstones Caleb Wilson and Matas Buzelis. With Giddey under a four-year contract paying $25 million annually, the writer suggests executive VP Bryson Graham may look to move him to keep the team's youth movement on track.
