According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the Chicago Bulls will likely begin next season with Zach LaVine on the roster.
LaVine and the Bulls want to part ways, but Chicago hasn’t found a taker for the guard due to his injury history and contract.
“League sources say that the Bulls are thus resigned to fact that they will likely be forced to start the new season with LaVine on the roster and take it a step further by trying to help him rebuild some trade value after months of fruitless efforts to find a new home via trade — and after a foot injury and eventual surgery limited the 29-year-old to 25 games last season,” Stein reported. “The problem there, of course, is that putting LaVine in positions to rebuild his trade value is bound to clash with Chicago’s widely presumed desire to finish with one of the league’s bottom-10 records next season to enhance its chances of retaining a lottery pick that must be conveyed to San Antonio if it falls out of the top 10 in the highly rated 2025 NBA Draft.”
