Zach LaVine of the Chicago Bulls, who would land with the New York Knicks in this proposed trade.
The New York Knicks have gone on a three-game losing streak, but before that, they were on absolute fire. With Jalen Brunson leading the way, they’ll be looking to get back into the playoffs after missing out last season.
Because of their high hopes, there’s a chance that New York looks to be aggressive on the trade market. And considering they’ve stockpiled a ton of first-round draft picks, they can afford to overpay a bit. One player they could potentially look to trade for is Chicago Bulls star Zach LaVine.
Here’s the outline of a three-team trade I proposed that also includes the Philadelphia 76ers:
Knicks receive: LaVine, Montrezl Harrell
Bulls receive: Tobias Harris, Obi Toppin, Immanuel Quickley, 2023 1st-Round Pick (from NYK, via DAL), 2024 1st-Round Pick (via NYK), 2028 1st-Round Pick (Top-5 Protected via NYK), 2027 2nd-Round Pick (via PHI), 2029 2nd-Round Pick (via PHI)
76ers receive: Evan Fournier, Cam Reddish, Alex Caruso
Zach’s two CLUTCH buckets in the final minute.
Zach LaVine in NY: 33 points, 12-22 FG, 4 threes.
