According to Evan Sidery, the Warriors have engaged in discussions with the Bulls and could leverage their expiring salaries and draft capital to facilitate a trade.

Vucevic, who is currently performing at an All-Star level, would bolster the Warriors’ interior presence while complementing the talents of Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

It remains to be seen whether Chicago would require Golden State to surrender Jonathan Kuminga as part of any potential return for Vucevic. However, it is interesting to note the report that they have checked in on the Bulls' center.
