Could the Hawks use a Zach LaVine trade to take a low-risk, high-upside swing on Lonzo Ball?
The two most stagnant trade sagas in the NBA are that of Brandon Ingram and Zach LaVine. Both are players who come with significant financial implications that drastically outweigh what they provide on the court. Waiting for the situation to improve does not seem very fruitful, either.
"An NBA insider told the Sun-Times on Tuesday that the relationship between LaVine and the team’s top brass is completely shattered and “filled with mistrust.” LaVine and his representation at Klutch Sports feel like they were misled on possible trade destinations, and the Bulls thought LaVine “opting” for season-ending right foot surgery when rehab on the injury was still on the table was a counterpunch thrown below the belt.
One team that should take the gamble on LaVine is the Phoenix Suns. After a disappointing first-round sweep at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Suns are now in a difficult position. Their aging star trio of Devin Booker, Bradly Beal and Kevin Durant all have salaries of over $50 million dollars and their roster is one of the most expensive in the NBA. One or more of Durant, Beal and Booker are virtually guaranteed to finish their careers outside of Phoenix.
