When the Bulls blow it up this season, which team could make a run for him to add a second or 3rd star? Possible teams to consider could be the Sixers, Hawks, Warriors, or even Lakers.

Do it now. Let Lonzo get as close to 100% as he is capable of getting before bringing him back. Get young as fuck and let Lonzo be the PG for that young team for a few years. Assumign he’s like 80% of who he was, this gives them decent point of attack defense, shooting, and an on court general to learn with.
The only real trade piece they have is Lavine. Both Derozan and Vuc are at the tail end of their primes. Derozan is an expiring deal and I presume a team would need a guarantee he re-signs.
