With all these teams looking to buy Rudy, it would be interesting to see what the future holds for the 7 feet French player.

So, as Chicago is in desperate need of defense reinforcement, Rudy can be an amazing addition to their roster.

Despite his struggles, while guarding the perimeter in the last season, Rudy remains one of the best rim protectors in the NBA and as the Hawks are also in need of a good defense, Rudy might be a help to them in the next season.
