Zach LaVine joining Clippers
Chicago Bulls star, Zach LaVine is one of the hottest names in the NBA trade market this off-season. Bulls wanted to trade LaVine for a long time but he reportedly had no trades because of his five-year $215 million contract. Injuries are a big concern for LaVine but he has proved to be productive during his playing time.
Reportedly, it has been seen that the Los Angeles Clippers have shown interest in acquiring Zach LaVine. Clippers recently lost Paul George in the free agency market to the Philadelphia 76ers and need a third option besides Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. LaVine could perfectly fit the role that George played in the team. Clippers have stated their financial inflexibility was the main reason for not offering George a max contract.
LaVine is a former two-time All-Star. He also had a great season with the Chicago Bulls averaging 19.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.9 assists. But LaVine’s main concerns have always been his health issues and his big contract for teams with trade interests. LaVine has only passed the 70-game played mark once since the 2017 season.
Only time will tell if fans will see LaVine playing for the Clippers. With the departure of George, the Clippers might be looking for someone to fill that void. In a tough Western Conference, the Clippers will be aiming to improve. With three NBA veterans on the team, LaVine could get a great learning experience as well.
Fans react to LaVine’s possibility of landing with the Clippers
