This transaction is fundamentally flawed as Ousmane Dieng is an NBA basketball player, not an NFL player. Multiple headlines confirm Dieng was traded between NBA teams including the Bulls, Bucks, and Thunder. The key signal is that this involves basketball organizations and NBA draft picks entirely. Fans would be confused by this impossible cross-sport roster move that violates league rules. The Bulls need to focus on actual NFL talent acquisition instead of basketball players.
