Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (foot) has been upgraded from questionable to available on Sunday. Having their star guard against the Brooklyn Nets is a big boost for the team's offense and for fantasy managers everywhere. The 28-year-old averages 22.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.3 turnovers, and 2.6 threes per game so far and has a great chance to put up a big night against a so-so defense. LaVine should remain in fantasy lineups regardless of the format.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (foot) is questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Nets in Brooklyn. The multi-time All-Star has battled foot soreness lately, keeping him out of Wednesday's game against OKC. However, he carried a designation before Friday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors but still finished with a season-high 36 points. Nonetheless, LaVine could continue to appear on the injury report moving forward, so there's a chance he could miss more time. But if he's active, he should be inserted into all fantasy lineups.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. LaVine was a late scratch from Wednesday's game, which was odd considering head coach Billy Donovan said LaVine was going to play. Regardless, LaVine sat out which led to Patrick Williams getting the starting nod. He finished with 10 points, seven rebounds, and two assists in 37 minutes of action. Fantasy managers should expect similar production from Williams on Friday if LaVine is unable to go.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (foot) is listed as probable for Wednesday's matchup against Oklahoma City. The two-time All-Star has landed on the injury report with right foot soreness. LaVine will be desperate to remain in the lineup after posting a pair of 13-point duds. His campaign is off to a poor start in general, with LaVine averaging 21.3 points, which is his lowest mark since 2017-18. The season began with a 16-point effort on 25 percent shooting against the Thunder, who are one of the best defensive teams in the league, so things could easily get uncomfortable for LaVine again on Wednesday night.

The Athletic's Shams Charania hears that "NBA teams are probing the availability of Chicago Bulls two-time All-Star guard Zach LaVine and there is increased openness from both sides about exploring a trade." LaVine is no stranger to trade murmurs after he was linked to the New York Knicks, among others, at the 2022-23 trade deadline. The 4-7 Bulls are essentially in no man's land in terms of title contention with star guard Lonzo Ball (knee) likely shelved for another year. The front office's intended direction when it comes to buying or selling at this year's February deadline should remain in a state of flux and be dictated by the team's record by that stage. Fellow All-Star DeMar DeRozan (on an expiring contract) is a candidate to be on the chopping block for Chicago if the club continues to underperform as well. LaVine, on the other hand, is under team control until at least 2025-26, so they may be inclined to budge only for an offer they can't refuse.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) and forward DeMar DeRozan (rest) are both available for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This is good news as the Bulls will have both their superstar players ready for this tough matchup. LaVine has been battling back spasms, but appears to be fine to play. The expectation is that both LaVine and DeRozan will resume their normal roles in the rotation. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups and make sure these two are in there.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The star guard has been listed on the injury report ahead of the last two games. LaVine was able to start and finish those games without any issues. He should be fine to play on Friday, assuming he doesn't suffer a setback. Otherwise, Coby White and Jevon Carter would have increased value if LaVine is unable to play.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. This is good news after LaVine was uncertain for this contest due to back spasms. LaVine has been off to a slow start to the season outside of his 51-point performance. Despite that, fantasy managers should continue to believe in him. He's an important piece to this rotation and should be able to get back on track soon.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (back) is considered probable for Wednesday's showdown against Luka Doncic and the Mavericks. He has been troubled by bilateral lower back spasms, but that didn't keep LaVine from going off for a career-high 51 points at the weekend against Detroit, and he also played Monday versus Indiana. It's safe to assume LaVine will be back out there as the Bulls try to gain some momentum following a shaky start to the campaign. Doncic tops the scoring charts with 39.0 points per game, and LaVine has tallied 37.0 points a night in his last two appearances, so this really should be a fascinating battle between two immensely talented scorers.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine was briefly listed on the injury report for the team's game against the Indiana Pacers on Monday. He's now officially listed as available and off of the injury report. The 28-year-old is fresh off of a 51-point game which is the first 50-point performance in the NBA this season. Unfortunately, that came during a losing effort, so he'll be aiming for a win against a solid Pacers squad. He should be in all fantasy lineups heading into this one.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) is probable for Monday's meeting with the Pacers. The 28-year-old is battling back spasms and appeared on the injury report ahead of Saturday's loss to the Detroit Pistons. However, he scored 51 points in that one, so the issue didn't impact him too much. Assuming LaVine plays, he's a must-start in any fantasy format.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine is dealing with a back issue and might have to skip Saturday's meeting with Detroit. He played through the problem Friday versus Toronto but clearly struggled, as the talented scorer shot 3-for-14 from the field with no three-point makes with six attempts. LaVine committed three turnovers in 38 minutes and had by far the worst plus/minus among all Bulls players with minus-23. Ayo Dosunmu and Jevon Carter should get more burn if LaVine isn't good to go, while his absence would also open up a lot of shots for his teammates.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (illness) and center Andre Drummond (personal) are not seen on the injury report leading into Wednesday's regular-season opener versus the Oklahoma City Thunder. LaVine was absent for Chicago's preseason finale last Thursday due to an illness, while Drummond was missing for personal reasons. The two-time All-Star, LaVine, looked sharp in three exhibition affairs, averaging 17.0 points on 53.7% shooting, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 steals in 23.7 minutes. LaVine will be heavily leaned on as a key part of the Bulls' offensive-minded trio of DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic, and with Lonzo Ball (knee) expected out for 2023-24. Drummond has decent handcuff potential as Chicago's one true big man behind Vucevic, but the latter played in all 82 games last year. The Bulls may have to up the tempo in this one against a young OKC team that likes to get out in transition.

According to Joe Cowley of The Chicago Sun-Times, trade talk surrounding Chicago Bulls shooting guard Zach LaVine has "quieted", but he could still be dealt, even when the season has started. The 28-year-old star has been linked with a number of teams, most recently the New York Knicks, but Chicago's asking price for LaVine is reportedly sky-high. LaVine has spent six productive years with the Bulls, averaging 24.5 points per game, but there's been very little playoff success for the team, with Chicago having made just one postseason appearance since acquiring LaVine from Minnesota in 2017.

According to Fred Katz of The Athletic, the Knicks inquired about the availability of Bulls guard Zach LaVine. However, per Katz, citing league sources, the asking price was "giant." LaVine is coming off a solid year, averaging 24.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 4.2 assists. He also played 77 games, the second-high mark of his career. Without question, the 28-year-old, who signed an extension last summer, is highly regarded by clubs around the National Basketball Association. His name has been mentioned in other rumors this offseason. But acquiring LaVine won't come easy, so there's a good chance he stays in Chicago.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine said that sometimes "you see a little too much smoke" regarding trade rumors. The all-star combo guard has been a part of one trade but has seen his name in trade rumors for a couple of years. As of right now, he doesn't see a trade happening any time soon and hints at the fact that he's ready to stay in Chicago for another year. His name has been linked to the Sixers in a James Harden deal and was even linked to the Knicks at one point as well. Everyone will have to stay tuned for any more updates this offseason.

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine had found himself in trade rumors this offseason, but he won't be given away cheaply. One league source has told Bulls insider K.C. Johnson that the club is looking for a good young player, multiple first-round picks, and a salary filler for LaVine. Another source has reportedly said that getting the two-time All-Star would require giving up one first-round pick and an established, high-end player. Trading for LaVine would be a massive investment, as the 28-year-old has just finished the first season of a five-year, $215 million contract.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine could be suiting up for a new team as early as next season. The organization is quietly feeling out the trade market for LaVine, according to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports. This isn't too surprising considering the Bulls front office might decide to go full rebuild soon. That being said, LaVine is their best trade piece, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to feel out his trade market. The 28-year-old is entering his second year of a five-year, $215 million deal. The biggest problem for LaVine has been staying healthy, but he managed to play in 77 games last season. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if LaVine gets moved, assuming the Bulls decide to go younger.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine might be headed elsewhere sooner than expected. Insider K.C. Johnson is skeptical that the Bulls are committed to LaVine for the full length of his contract. The two sides agreed to a massive extension that keeps LaVine in Chicago through the 2025-2026 season. However, the Bulls could be headed in a right direction soon, which might mean they'd be willing to move LaVine. This core roster isn't getting any younger and LaVine is the best trade piece that the Bulls have right now. There is no word from the organization about trading LaVine, but it wouldn't be shocking to see it happen if things continue to go in the wrong direction.
