Overview
- Early efforts to move Coby White have not yielded the unprotected first-round pick Chicago has sought, per The Athletic.
- Reluctance is tied to his expiring deal, uncertainty over his next contract, and nagging calf issues this season.
- White is averaging 18.5 points and 4.8 assists, but his defensive profile and size at shooting guard temper demand.
- Ayo Dosunmu has reportedly emerged as a more attractive asset, with mutual interest in an extension and a high asking price to pry him loose.
- With the Feb. 5 trade deadline approaching and the Bulls tracking toward the Play-In, no deal for White is described as imminent.
