More on this storyline

Now consider the possibility two-time All-Star Zach LaVine, whom Chicago has explored moving since the summer, league sources told Yahoo Sports, and the Raptors’ other premium free-agent-to-be, All-Star forward Pascal Siakam, could both remain with their incumbent franchises past the Feb. 8 buzzer. . -via / January 11, 2024

There’s still plenty of doubt among league personnel the Bulls will find an amenable trade partner for LaVine. A team that is both willing to assume the four years and roughly $180 million left on LaVine’s contract and furnish Chicago with preferred pieces who can help the 9th-seeded Bulls keep pace in the Eastern Conference postseason picture has been hard to come by. . -via / January 11, 2024

sources said. There does seem to be a pathway for a Murray-to-Los Angeles deal if the Lakers would be willing to include Reaves, sources said, although that would require the Hawks to send back more value for Los Angeles’ liking. Around the league, D’Angelo Russell’s $17 million salary has not been viewed as a valuable trade chip for the Lakers to bolster their roster behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis. -via / January 11, 2024
