New York Knicks: Is trading for Zach LaVine a good idea?

Zach LaVine is an underrated talent.

The former UCLA Bruin has blossomed into a viable NBA guard since turning pro in 2014. Before the league suspended play in March, LaVine led the Chicago Bulls with 25.5 points per game. Despite the Bulls’ struggles, LaVine was looking more and more like a star in the Windy City.

Now, things are different. The Bulls are heading for another rebuild under new executive vice president Arturas Karnisovas. LaVine has two years and $39 million left on his contract, per Spotrac, and Chicago is looking to trade their star.
