A Reach For Diawara’s 7’4 Wingspan
This trade might fly under the radar, but acquiring Mohamed Diawara’s draft rights for two future second round picks is quietly brilliant for the Bulls.
Diawara, a 6’9” forward with an impressive 7’4” wingspan, fits seamlessly into a roster built around versatility and defense.
While his stats in France aren’t eye popping yet, Diawara’s defensive upside is huge. Pairing him with defensive minded players like Nic Claxton, Jalen Suggs, Josh Green, and potentially James Nnaji creates a formidable rotation capable of guarding multiple positions.
“We genuinely believe Diawara has first round talent,” said Bulls GM Jonathan. “He’s raw, but his upside is tremendous. We’ve had scouts comparing him favorably to Pascal Siakam due to his length, defensive instincts, and growth potential.”
Offensively, playing alongside skilled playmakers like LaMelo Ball, Collin Sexton, and Tyler Kolek will ease Diawara’s transition, providing him space to develop without immediate pressure. With emerging talents like Matas Buzelis, Goga Bitadze, Justin Edwards, Nikola Durisic, and others also on board, the Bulls clearly have their eyes on long term potential.
“Diawara fits perfectly into what we’re building here,” Jonathan added. “He’s got all the tools, and with our development team, we think he’ll surprise a lot of people.”
Trading two second round picks, usually uncertain assets, for Diawara’s high ceiling is a strategic gamble. With the Bulls robust development system and strong emphasis on defensive identity, Diawara has every chance to blossom into a cornerstone piece. Keep your eye on this one, it could quietly become a steal.
