Staff

Courtesy of adamtaylornba of BullsWire Zach LaVine has found his name in trade rumors in recent weeks. The veteran guard is arguably the Chicago Bulls‘ most tradeable asset and could be the franchise’s first move if they decide to enter a rebuild or pursue a new star player. LaVine, 28, has been a core part of Chicago’s rotation for six years, but now, the two-time All-Star could find himself suiting up for a new team before the end of the upcoming season.

The contract will pay $2.7 million for the upcoming season, with the second year being a player option.

Courtesy of Greg Finberg, SB Nation Following a second-consecutive 35-win season, Washington Wizards Head Coach Wes Unseld Jr. finds himself in hot water. Despite having talented rosters, Unseld has yet to reach the playoffs, let alone the play-in. On a lot of teams, he would’ve been fired.
