The Los Angeles Lakers are one of the most mentioned teams in trade rumors, as they keep trying to improve their level and have a better shot at winning the 2023 NBA championship. Even though they’ve shown a better face in recent duels, the Lakers aren’t close to the top of the Western Conference.

Still, the team believes that they’re not so far from being contenders, and perhaps making a trade is the right move for them, who are trying to find the best return for their available players. 

A couple of days ago, they were linked with DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic of the Chicago Bulls, but this might not be the only time the Lakers will be mentioned among potential suitors for the Bulls stars. 


Los Angeles Lakers Still Keeping Tabs On Zach LaVine’s Situation With Bulls

Zach LaVine has been a person of interest for the Purple and Gold for a while now, and the Lakers are paying close attention to the situation at United Center to see if they can lure LaVine away from Windy City. Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reports that Zach would be the perfect player for these Lakers. 

The Lakers are certainly keeping an eye trained toward the Bulls’ developments. A player like Zach LaVine would satisfy Los Angeles’ dreamiest returns for the two future first-round picks Rob Pelinka’s front office has left in its stable, although the murmured idea of flipping Russell Westbrook for Vucevic and DeRozan would appear a far more realistic outcome if Chicago does ultimately pivot from its postseason aspirations.

LaVine would be a great addition to almost any team in the NBA, and the Lakers are well aware of that. They’re reportedly concerned about Russell Westbrook’s fit with the team despite Russ’ recent good performances off the bench. They know that the right move could make them a part of the top 5 in the West, but it remains unclear which player will find their way to Crypto.com Arena.
