Fantasy Impact:
Vucevic’s 9-year run in Orlando officially comes to an end as he’s dealt to the Bulls, another rebuilding team. He immediately becomes an upgrade for the Bulls at the center position. His fantasy value likely takes a bit of a hit as he’s the second scoring option behind Zach LaVine as opposed to the first, although he’ll still be a focal point. Carter Jr. likely becomes the Magic starter, which would be good for his fantasy value. Orlando doesn’t appear to be finished either, as both Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier are expected to be traded in the coming hours.
