NBA Trade Rumors: Bulls, Heat Wrangling With Celtics For Reggie Jackson

Sounds like we're starting to get a pretty clear picture of Boston College Eagles guard Reggie Jackson's NBA Draft stock. After the Oklahoma City Thunder were reportedly interested in selecting him at No. 24, the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat are looking to take pick No. 25 from the Boston Celtics, according to ESPN's Andy Katz.

Katz says the Bulls are primarily concerned with the Dallas Mavericks at No. 26 and the New Jersey Nets at No. 27.

Jackson canceled several workouts in the days before the draft after one team apparently told him he wouldn’t stay on the board past their time on the clock. The Heat have long been rumored to be the mystery team that promised to select Jackson -- a rumor Katz supports, by the way.

See our 2011 NBA Draft hub for full coverage of the draft, trades and the aftermath on Friday. For more Boston College sports, visit BC Interruption.
