The Windy City Bulls are involved in their second three-team trade for the second time this offseason. Windy City will send returning the player right of Hassani Gravett to the Memphis Hustle and a 2023 first-round pick to the Texas Legends. While Windy City will receive player rights of Carlik Jones from the Legends and Ben Moore from the Hustle.

Carlik Jones received a training camp contract with the Chicago Bulls after playing on the Bulls Summer League team. Jones averaged 1.3 points and 2.3 assists in three games during the preseason. But Chicago was more impressed with performances in Las Vegas, leading the team in assists (6.2) and fourth in points (11.6). His best performance in Vegas was against the Dallas Mavericks when he scored 17 points on 7-for-7 shooting from the field.

Last season, Jones averaged 21.1 points and 7.5 assists in 33 games with the Texas Legend. With Windy City trading away their 2023 first-round pick, expect Carlik Jones to start and often play in close games.

Ben Moore returning home

Ben Moore will get the chance to play in his hometown state of Illinois. Moore grew up in Bolingbrook, IL, less than an hour from NOW Arena. The NOW area is where the Windy City Bulls will play their home games. After going undrafted in the 2017 NBA Draft, Moore signed with the Indiana Pacers for the 2017 NBA Summer League. In January of 2018, the Pacers signed Moore to a two-way contract, where he split time with the Pacers and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants.

Moore signed a two-way contract with the San Antonio Spurs in 2018 before returning to the Fort Mad Ants in 2019. He returned to the G League last year with the Memphis Hustle. Moore averaged 10.6 points and 8.3 rebounds in 21 games with the Hustle.

After being a part of the Windy City Bulls organization for a month and a half, he will play in Memphis. Gravett averaged 12.6 points and 4.3 assists in two seasons in the G League with the Lakeland Magic. When Gravett got called up to the NBA, he averaged 6.2 points and 2.4 assists in eight games with the Orlando Magic. Gravett will likely become a starter in Memphis.
