The Bulls are likely to send off the backcourt star this summer. Is he a target worth paying attention to?

According to NBA reporter Jake Weinbach, Chicago Bulls backcourt player Ayo Dosunmu will be one of the names that the Los Angeles Lakers need to pay attention to in the trading market. Weinbach said Dosem's outside defense and organizational ability are quite good, and his contract is an expiring contract. His salary next season is $7.5 million, which is also a very cost-effective contract for the transaction. For the Lakers, the 25-year-old Bulls backcourt player should look like an attractive trading target.

In the NBA regular season last season, Dosem made a total of 46 appearances, averaging 30.3 minutes per game, averaging 12.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 1.5 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 49.2%, three-point shooting percentage of 32.8%, and free throw shooting percentage of 78.5%. Dosem missed a lot of games due to injuries last season, but his overall performance was actually pretty good. As Weinbach said, Dosem can also play a key role in organization and tandem offense and on the defensive end.

From the Lakers' perspective, they have indeed become in touch with several players in recent times. However, most of the players have relatively low operability. The Lakers need to provide more chips and more rotation players to attract the attention of other teams. In contrast, considering Dosem's contract and salary, it is obvious that the Lakers don't need to pay too much money to get him, and introducing Dosem will not have any big impact on the team's lineup. On the other hand, according to ClutchPoints reporter Brett Siegel, the Bulls have received trading calls about Dorsem and Coby White, with the former being more concerned by other teams. Siegel expects one of the two backcourt players to be traded by the team before the new season begins. In other words, if the Lakers can provide the right offer, the Bulls are definitely willing to offer him a contract.

Based on the above information, we can also boldly guess that the Lakers can completely exchange Dosem by sending out the second round pick and Gabe Vincent, whose same contract is about to expire, as the trading entity. The Lakers obviously have room for improvement in Vincent's position. It seems that Dosem can take on more responsibilities on the offensive end. He is much higher than Vincent in terms of figure, and he can also play a more important role on the defensive end. I don’t know if the Lakers will find a way to promote this deal next.
