NBA Rumors: Bulls Considering Trading Zach LaVine amid Struggling Season

NBA – After a failed start to the season, the Bulls seem increasingly inclined to trade Zach LaVine. The player would not be against…

While the group was expected to explode this summer, the Bulls decided to start with the same hard core this season, around DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic, in order to bounce back.

But after 11 games (4 wins – 7 losses), Chicago may have already decided to change its mind.

Shams Charania thus assures that the Illinois franchise would be more and more open to the idea of ​​an exchange of Zach LaVine, a scenario which would also suit the 28-year-old guard more and more…

The rumors surrounding the former Wolves are not new, but they are therefore likely to increase.

It remains to be seen who is really interested in the profile of Zach LaVine, author of a rather complicated start to the season (21.9 points on average at 41% success, including only 31% at 3-points), despite the second peak in scoring. of the young season, with 51 points scored against the Pistons.

We logically think of the Sixers, while Daryl Morey explained

during the transfer of James Harden that it was important to recover two “first round” Drafts from the Clippers to be able to pick up another player.

As a reminder, Zach LaVine has just entered the second season of his five-year, $215 million contract signed last year in Chicago. He will receive 40 million dollars this season, then 43 million in 2024/25, 46 million in 2025/26 and finally 49 million in 2027/27, even if this last year is a “player option”.
