I feel for Zach. He's been a trooper through some dark years in Chicago Bulls basketball. True professional.
But it's time for both sides to move one. Hopefully Zach goes to a much better situation for winning and the Bulls can set themselves up for the future

Good.
Zach should be on the move.
His play has been disconnected, and I’ve seen little from him to suggest he’s engaged this season.
And on some level I get it. He’s constantly been in trade rumours.
I’ll be surprised if he’s get the haul fans will want, but it’s time.

I’ll always root for Zach Lavine, even if he ends up on the Lakers. He gave us hope during a dark time. Sucks that it didn’t work out, but I’ll always have love. Same sentiment for DeRozan if they trade him too.

Lakers' players signed over the summer can't be traded until December 15th, FYI. Jarred Vanderbilt is not trade eligible this season now that he has signed his extension.

Save those lakers Lavine trades. Any trade with the bulls I need Caruso end of story.

Please do not include RJ Barrett in your Zach Lavine mock trades.
I’m begging you. pic.twitter.com/twPijg66xE

Me right now seeing the Knicks fans that are ready to trade RJ Barrett for Zach Lavine

Hope the Bulls do pick a direction, and if they decide to move LaVine teams will be circling to pick up other pieces as well. Should put Vucevic, DeRozan, Caruso, etc onto the trade market

The warriors get lavine that’s a chip

All jokes aside, LaVine’s contract is crazy, he’s signed to Klutch and he’s not a position of need. I give it a 2% chance he lands in Miami and that’s being generous
— Austin (@ChefTrillie) November 14, 2023
Sixers would still have cap space available bringing in lavine if they just give Marcus morris expiring contract in the trade (I know morris wants to be in philly and nowhere else)

Zack Lavine needs to go west Da Kings or Da Warriors most definitely need to do whatever they gotta do to get him ‼️💯
— Big Cam (@TTS_CAM3) November 14, 2023
Warriors pls inquire about Lavine. maybe this pressures Klay to be willing to take a lot less or trade him. I love Klay but for $30 mil we need someone that can also drive and finish not just shoot. He has no more lock down defense. Again, I Love Klay, but can’t waste Steph’s yrs

I’m not completely against the idea of Zach LaVine but don’t feel he’s the perfect piece the Sixers should cash their assets in for
Feel like it is a massive risk to make a drastic change to this team at the moment and am more interested in an OG Anunoby type player overall
