Dude as a Bulls fan I’ve been saying this for years. Like 2 years ago before we resigned him to 20m I was like, I wanna resign him for cheap and have him come off the bench behind a better/defensive center. As much as Vuc pissed me off he’d be a NASTY backup center. Have him play against backup and just feed him in the post and let him to go work. Bro is a spark plug all of a sudden lol

At Vucevic’s age, that seems even a little high. I know he’s still doing decently well, but he’s a 35 y.o. center with a thousand NBA games played.

I think if the last year is a team option it’s alright.

I don’t know what the metrics say but Luka Garza is currently playing somewhere between serviceable and quality for us for 2 months now. If Vuc can be a serviceable defender, he’s in the right place to figure that out.

At his age? Probably not. Steve Clifford, a noted defensive coach, got prime Vooch to be netural at best.

If Vuc manages to be a neutral defender in Boston this trade is a massive success.

Would imagine he’e probably coming off the bench for at least a couple weeks while we get some reps with him, then once the team’s comfortable playing with him it’ll be more of a matchup-based thing
