Confirmed deal : Lakers Being Linked to $40 Million All-Star Ahead of Trade Deadline

 

The Los Angeles Lakers have started the new NBA season with a record of 5-4. They’ve been more competitive than most people believed they’d be, especially with the team bringing back essentially the same roster from last season.

 

Los Angeles still has the ultimate goal of winning another NBA title at the forefront but with this current group, it could be tough. They are expected to be very active at the NBA trade deadline as they try to bring more talent into the equation.

 

One name that has been linked with Los Angeles for a long time is Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine. LaVine is a two-time All-Star but has seen multiple injuries derail his career in recent years.

However, when healthy, he is one of the better scorers in the NBA. The Bulls are in a strange place as they are expected to move on from LaVine and possibly center Nikola Vucevic as well.
