The Chicago Bulls have traded for Creighton forward Doug McDermott. The Denver Nuggets drafted McDermott with the 11th overall pick and sources are reporting the Bulls have acquired McDermott.
ESPN’s Jeff Goodman has confirmed the report. The Nuggets have acquired the Bulls No. 16 and No. 19 picks in the first round.
