CHICAGO (CBS) — As trade speculation continues to swirl less than a week before the NBA Draft, the Bulls made a minor move Friday.
Chicago traded power forward Cam Bairstow to the Detroit Pistons for guard Spencer Dinwiddie, the team announced. The Bulls had a need for reserve guards as Derrick Rose often deals with injury problems and E’Twaun Moore and Aaron Brooks are entering free agency. Acquiring Dinwiddie essentially gives Chicago a no-risk look at him over the summer, as he’s currently on a non-guaranteed contract, with $250,000 of that becoming guaranteed on Nov. 1.
The 23-year-old Dinwiddie averaged 4.8 points and 1.8 assists in 12 games for the Pistons last season, when he was rarely in the rotation and also spent time in the D-League. Dinwiddie has a history of injuries, including ankle and knee ailments last year. Dinwiddie is a career 17.3 percent 3-point shooter in limited action across two season. He was selected by Detroit in the second round (38th overall) in the 2014 draft.
Bairstow, 25, was a little-used reserve for the Bulls, averaging 1.9 points and 1.6 rebounds in 18 games last season. Chicago selected Bairstow in the second round (49th overall) in the 2014 draft.
