Vučević, meanwhile, was the anchor in Chicago of the NBA’s 24th-rated defense. He does space the floor offensively, shooting 39.1% on 4.5 3-point attempts per game over the past two seasons, and he is a double-double machine, averaging 17.2 points and 10.4 rebounds over a 15-year career. He is one of 28 players ever to log 15,000 points and 10,000 rebounds.
