A Western Conference executive, who understands the Lakers' situation pretty well, said he’d point them toward Zach LaVine.
Hey everyone, this is Dan Woike and welcome to the Lakers Newsletter, the time each week when the Los Angeles Times trusts me enough to speak directly to the readers in the same way your one uncle forwards you a joke that kind of makes you smile . Schools are back in session, college football is already back and the NFL is following, meaning the NBA preseason isn’t that far off. And as we’ve gotten closer, I’ve started ramping up my conversations with people around the league.
To be clear, the actual Lakers front office never has shown any real interest in LaVine, as far as I can tell. And for the Bulls, it probably makes as much sense as anything for them to see if LaVine can show he’s healthy early next season and increase his trade value from none to something. None of the people I spoke with picked the Lakers' likely path — which is to wait and see while rolling with what they’ve got.
