Pistons Had Zach LaVine Trade Done Before Surgery

According to K.C. Johnson of NBCS Chicago, the framework for a Zach LaVine trade was being materialized with the Detroit Pistons legitimately being interested in the veteran guard.

Before LaVine opted for season-ending surgery, Detroit and the Chicago Bulls discussed Zach LaVine for Bojan Bogdanovic and Joe Harris. This was the Bulls’ best offer, with many reports suggesting they would lose any trade regarding LaVine.

If I were Detroit, I would be heartbroken. It would have been a great pairing in the backcourt with Cade Cunningham. Now, they’ll search for another guard and a team to take Killian Hayes, who has requested a trade out of their organization.

The NBA trade deadline is February 8th, 2024.
