The Chicago Bulls haven't been that active in the player movement binge right now, but don't be surprised if some (or all) their veteran front men end up playing for other teams in exchange for young blood.

Of the three name mentioned, it is no secret that Noah and Gibson have long been rumored to be leaving soon. Gibson is coming off an injury, something that dates back to the offseason. That and the fact that he does carry a hefty salary have made him the subject of possible trade rumors, although nothing has materialized so far.

Noah, on the other hand, is coming from injury as well. He lost his spot to rookie Bobby Portis and from the looks of it, will have a hard time winning it back.

Gasol is a strange pawn in the mix, considering he has silently done his part. But then again, he is not as young as he used to be so if a good player is offered, then why not?

Apparently, the Bulls are looking to add a wingman, a spot clearly vacant with Mike Dunleavy Jr. still in the sidelines. But the question is who could the Bulls target in the market?

Well, there are a couple of names they could consider like maybe Nick Young of the Los Angeles Lakers. Young has also been the subject of trade rumors, although there is the question of chemistry.

Young has been known to be at his best when shooting the ball but other than that, he may not fit into the system of Fred Hoiberg.

With a 23–15 card, the Bulls are currently at third spot in the Eastern Conference, behind the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Toronto Raptors. Hence, one has to wonder why the Bulls would want to move these players.

A move for the future of the club perhaps?
