## Resource

Chicago just pulled off a blockbuster move, signing All-Star guard Norman Powell to a two-year, $45M deal — using nearly all their cap space but leaving room for one more player. Powell, 33, averaged over 21 points last season, made the All-Star team, and remains a deadly shooter despite a slight dip in his three-point game. The Heat couldn’t retain him after trading for Giannis. While Powell doesn’t fit the Bulls’ youth-driven rebuild timeline, his arrival signals a strategic pivot — positioning the team to avoid the NBA’s new “relegation zone” while staying out of playoff contention. That sweet spot could land them a top draft pick. Plus, Powell’s tradeable by Dec. 15, making him a movable asset for teams chasing wins now — or a veteran mentor for Chicago’s young core.
