"Sochan has fallen to the fringes of head coach Mitch Johnson's rotation - he's essentially only a mop-up minutes guy or an injury sub. The 6-foot-8 Baylor product has seen his minutes slashed from 25.3 to 13.1 this season,"
"Per Evan Sidery of Forbes, the Bulls number among the clubs that have inquired about Sochan - along with the Charlotte Hornets, New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns. Sidery asserts that both San Antonio and Sochan's management team are hoping to find a trade fit in time for next week. The former 2023 All-Rookie Teamer, who's still just 22, is a career 28.7 percent shooter on 2.3 triple tries a night."
With the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline approaching, the Chicago Bulls are weighing options around multiple expiring contracts and mixed intentions about selling veterans. Jeremy Sochan has slipped to limited mop-up and injury-sub minutes in San Antonio after averaging 25.3 minutes last season and 13.1 this season. Sochan is averaging career lows in points, rebounds and assists while shooting poorly from distance. Several teams, including the Bulls, Hornets, Knicks, Lakers and Suns, have inquired about him. Sochan is on an expiring $7.1 million deal and would become a restricted free agent if tendered a qualifying offer. The Bulls view him as a potential buy-low fit, though acquisition cost and trade return remain questions.
