The Washington Wizards could move Rui Hachimura for the young guard of the Chicago Bulls Coby White.

The Chicago Bulls have been struggling to start the season and it has not been due to their starters. They need a spark plug off the bench and that could be a role in which Rui Hachimura thrives.

He would be a floor spacer off the bench for DeMar DeRozen, allowing the Bulls to run different looks on both offense and defense. Moving White would also clear up more minutes for the return of Lonzo Ball.

The trade would look something like this:

The Wizards would get a quality point guard who can once again get the ball out of Bradley Beals hands. Not even Michael Jordan or LeBron James could win championships alone.

Playing in a situation where he is needed to move the ball more rather than score at a high level may also prove to be huge for the development of Coby White as he is currently deployed as a score first option off the bench.

Next. The Washington Wizards' key player is Kyle Kuzma. dark

If the Washington Wizards decide to do any of these trades involving Rui Hachimura, they could see themselves pushed higher in the hierarchy of the eastern conference.
