LaVine SENT DOWN to G League – These Trades Could CHANGE EVERYTHING | Chicago Bulls News

Trouble is on the brink as Zack LaVine has been assigned to the windy city Bulls of the g- league in order to come back from an injury as no trade Partners have been found to date we also have some players that have been mentioned that are younger that the Bulls could

Target in some trades as the deadline is just about a month away I’m your host Joey Mercer this is another episode of bulls digest and before we get into it there today I just want to say that about 88% of you that watch these videos are not subscribed so make sure if you

That is LaVine to the G league so yeah there’s been some Rumblings over the past day or so that they’ve assigned him there to kind of help him Vamp up from injury but he wouldn’t have had to be assigned at all if there were more trade suitors that came about when the bulls

Look for a trade for him to start with uh it has a lot to do with the contract it has some to do with the defense and it has a lot to do with how things have been handled as a way too is it because the Bulls haven’t taken offers that have

Come their way that are probably of the correct value right now we don’t know that much inside but hopefully we’ll get more of an understanding now as he starts to ramp up and come back in the deadline very close away first thing that we saw was from the Chicago Bulls

Official Twitter saying roster update we’ve assigned Zack LaVine to the Wy City bulls and it said in brackets for practice this has happened with a lot of star players in the past not usually guys of lavine’s caliber unless it’s super serious injuries and we didn’t really think this was like a a surgery

Type injury because it just hasn’t been very weird to put him back there but I guess they’re just trying to get him in the swing of things without as much contact and maybe you know less uh uh grind of the NBA practice scene and just getting him in the G league but it’s

Still an odd choice for sure now next thing we saw in an article about it was for over a month Zack LaVine has been sidelined due to right foot inflammation during that time the Chicago Bulls tried to shop LaVine who has been the subject of several trade rumors however the

Bulls haven’t been able to find a trade partner with LaVine nearing a return to action and no alternative option in sight the Bulls got him some practice reps by signing him to the win City Bulls of the G league on Monday being yesterday of course the next thing that

We saw was actually from KC Johnson on the matter saying a along these lines Bulls just assigned LaVine to the windy city Bulls who are practicing at Advocate center right now this is lavine’s first non-controlled Contact scenario as he tries to clear final hurdle before return this was actually

Him responding to a tweet he put out saying Billy Donovan said Zack LaVine Nicole Luchi and Tory Craig all will remain in Chicago for this two game trip while Donovan likes their presence in Locker room/ on bench with backto back and them all doing on court work makes

Sense Lo logistically to keep them at Advocate Center so we haven’t heard any rumors of V or even Tory Craig being put down to the G league but they haven’t been out for very long lavine’s been out as it was just mentioned for over a month but it’s still a very strange

Choice and I feel like behind the scenes they’re trying to word this correctly because the team has been very good without Zack LaVine there so maybe it is time to shop him for what we can get hopefully the value is still there but I do feel like we don’t know the full

Story on value when they look at a guy that’s been injured a guy in a big contract it’s really tough for us to get off that contract and then with injury RS on top of it it it’s very challenging for another team to take him on just matching salaries alone which is why

That we’ve really had to go into the uh trade machine here at Bulls digest and see what is plausible for other teams to offer us so that can they can still remain within the cap the next story that we’re going to talk about today is two more young names on the radar we’ve

Talked about a few guys we’ve talked about kaminga we haven’t touched too much on Moody but we have mentioned him uh and we actually just recently talked about the Bulls getting Wiggins Draymond greens different players have been mentioned all over the league and now we have some more guys that have been

Mentioned now let’s get right into those it actually said as the NBA trade deadline inches closer the Chicago Bulls are going to be a top team to watch Ever since their ugly five and4 start to the season they’ve been a common Squad brought up as a potential seller the top

Story has been the search for a Zack LaVine trade but other pieces could be moving around as well while their primary focus may be funding LaVine deal as well as trades for deara rosan and other veterans the Bulls should also be keeping an eye on players they may want

To bring back in trades Zack Buckley of Bleacher Report listed three names as potential Bulls trade targets so it’s true I mean obviously they’ve looked to move LaVine first and see what the team looks like they haven’t been able to do things like that so now it’s like maybe

We should move deur or V or Tory Craig or Javon Carter or anybody at at that matter so it’s interesting to see now that they’re going to a different route of things maybe they’re going to go even younger and maybe we’re going to give up you know more value for Less value in

Hopes that they’d become something in the future next thing we saw was one of the names Buckley float it was memphy Memphis sorry Grizzlies Ford zire Williams the 22-year-old has appeared in 30 games this season playing 19 minutes of contest he’s averaged seven points four rebounds and about an assist while

Shooting 38% from the field and 32 from behind the 3point line those numbers are not very good let’s be honest but Zyra Williams is very young he’s a long guy he was the 10th overall pick I believe just a few years ago this is a guy that

Has a lot of potential in this league he is another guy that is a long Wing similar to Patrick Williams but a little bit bigger even at that matter and when you’re going through this retool of rebuild stage which seems to be where they are with these trades you have to

Take on some guys that you hope are going to become something and AR already something so he could be a guy there it doesn’t mention what he would be traded for maybe we could get him for a low low value because he is having such a bad

Year so far and then a new home in Chicago could really turn things around for him that’s all that I feel to think about this the next player they wanted to mention there was he also mentioned the idea of targeting draft assets as well as Washington Wizards point guard

Ties Jones Chicago should prioritize draft picks over everything this roster will acquire a complete overhaul at some point but if chases win now talent for some reason then a pass first point guard like Jones might connect this roster the way Lonzo ball once did Buckley wrote Williams meanwhile

Represents the kind of lowcost flyer this franchise should be taking if it ever leans into a youth movement so I’m going to have to agree and then strongly disagree I don’t think that they fully just have to go into a full rebuild right now if they’re going towards a

Youth movement so to speak with zy Williams is a solid choice for them to pick up as he is a guy that has a lot of tools that have put in the right system could really really flourish however tus Jones Lonzo ball completely different players Lonzo ball is a big point guard

That can switch on to other bigs and is a great defender as well as playmaker and three-point shooter tyus Jones is a guy that doesn’t turn the ball over is a really good playmaker has the ability to shoot at a good percentage it’s kind of up and down with him though sometimes

It’ll be like 40% from three then it’s 30 it’s it’s it’s really up and down however right now I do believe that it is pretty solid but he is not a good Defender Ty Jones is a poor Defender actually so do not compare him to Lonzo ball just because of the offense because

Even the offensive aspect is not quite there for Ty Jones upon the level that Lonzo ball was in those 35 games we had him and even before that when he was with the Pelicans he’s a better player than Ty Jones is right now this has been your host Joey Mercer hope you all
