As the NBA draft and free agency looms, rumors have spread all around the league. Many key teams have been leaked as possible players in trade deals. Washington Wizards, New York Knicks, and the New Orleans Pelicans have been a part of key rumors. As these rumors surfaced, the Chicago Bulls joined in these rumors, with a possible interest in trading Zach LaVine.
For the first year of his $215 million max deal, LaVine averaged an adequate 24.8 points per game on 48.4% shooting from the field. This did not help the Bulls contend at the beginning of the season, as they were barely in the play-in for most of the season.
