ON THE SIDELINES : Bulls Get 3 1st-Round Draft Picks
The Chicago Bulls came up with three first-round picks in today’s NBA draft by dealing 7-foot forward Brad Sellers to the Seattle SuperSonics.
The Bulls already had the No. 6 and No. 20 selections, then acquired the 18th first-round pick in return for the three-year veteran in Monday’s deal.
Sellers, who averaged 8.2 points and 3.5 rebounds a game in his three years with the Bulls, started 25 games last season.
