NBA RUMORS: Zach LaVine to Boston Celtic is a done deal…………
At last, it appears that the Windy City will soon undergo reconstruction. Though the Chicago Bulls would prefer to complete a trade for Zach LaVine before considering other options, other teams are more interested in Alex Caruso or DeMar DeRozan. LaVine is prepared to leave the Bulls and would rather be traded to the Heat, 76ers, or Lakers.
The issue is that, with those three and in the NBA, LaVine’s market is lukewarm for the Bulls. That was previously reported by NBC Sports, and ESPN insider Adrian Wojnarowski offered his thoughts on the matter during NBA Today.
LaVine is an All-Star, an Olympian, an elite isolation scorer averaging 21 points and 4.9 rebounds a game, and is a career 38.2% shooter from 3. He’s been slowed by a foot injury recently, but teams know what and who LaVine is — he doesn’t bring defense or the reputation of a guy willing to do the little things to win.
