NBA rumors reveal why the Chicago Bulls failed to acquire Yves Missi from the New Orleans Pelicans at the trade deadline.

The Celtics also have a wealth of wings this season. Sam Hauser has solidified his starter role after a slow shooting start to the year. The other two recent draft picks, Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez, have also proven to be NBA-caliber players. That’s a stable of young wings the Celtics have under team control.

Joining Sunday's trade felt like a step in the right direction, as all signs point to the Bulls leaning toward developing their young core.

BOSTON (AP) — Payton Pritchard scored 26 points and the Boston Celtics rolled past the Chicago Bulls 124-105 on Wednesday night in the final game for both teams before the All-Star break. Jaylen Brown added 24 points.

The Bulls already wasted precious time that they should have been spending on roster-building and player development. They aren't going to get it back, either.

When the buzzer finally sounded, the Bulls had executed seven trades and parted with eight players: Jevon Carter (who was waived), Ayo Dosunmu, Kevin Huerter, Emanuel Miller, Julian Phillips, Dalen Terry, Nikola Vučević and Coby White.

The San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors meet Wednesday at Chase Center in San Francisco, California. Tip-off is scheduled for 10 p.m. ET.
