Despite the Chicago Bulls needing a major roster shakeup, trading for Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson would not improve the team.

We have reached June, where the Chicago Bulls inch closer to making their first offseason move. Rajon Rondo is continuing to rehab his broken thumb and wrist injury, Dwyane Wade is out in Miami living it up and Jimmy Butler is giving interviews on Jimmy Kimmel.

However, that does not mean the entire offseason will be quiet for the organization.

Or that the rumor mill has slowed down.

Most recently, the franchise has come up as a possible landing place for Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson.
