Open Extended ReactionsThe Chicago Bulls are trading Lonzo Ball to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Isaac Okoro, sources told ESPN on Saturday. For the Cavaliers, the Ball acquisition provides a fast-paced, defensive-minded point guard with size at 6-foot-6 as the franchise prepares to lose Ty Jerome in free agency. Also, free agent guard Sam Merrill intends to sign a four-year, $38 million contract to stay with the Cavaliers, sources told ESPN. But Garland is likely to miss time to start the regular season, sources told ESPN. The deal gives the Bulls a 3-and-D forward in Okoro, 24, who appeared in 55 games and averaged 6.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists.
