Chicago tested the trade market for Zach LaVine at the February deadline, but it kept the asking price high — an All-Star level player plus picks. That market turned out to be cold.
This is a trade both the Bulls and LaVine want, so going into this summer he is back on the trade market but at a "significantly" lower price, reports K.C. Johnson at NBC Sports Chicago.
I do get the sense both sides are motivated to make something work this offseason. I don't think the Bulls will take an awful deal if little materializes, but I do get the sense they're open to more possibilities than before.
