The Chicago Bulls ended the latest NBA season in tenth place in the East.
Obviously, that is far from where they wanted to be and it shows that some things need to change.
The roster has experienced a slew of problems lately, mostly related to injuries.
And now there is speculation that that roster is set to change in the weeks ahead.
Jake Fischer, via NBACentral, is reporting that the Bulls are “contacting teams, and gauging the trade interest in Zach LaVine.”

Losing LaVine would be a very big move for the Bulls.
Since he joined the team back in 2017, he has been a pivotal part of the roster and started in almost every single game he’s played in.
Known for his impressive size and his shooting ability, LaVine is considered one of the faces of this franchise.
Saying goodbye to him would be a massive shake-up.
Would he be the only player parting ways with Chicago?
Or would they also try to trade other players, such as Alex Caruso or even DeMar DeRozan?
In the last season, LaVine averaged 24.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 4.2 assists on 48.5% from the floor.
If the Bulls are serious about trading him, there will be numerous teams lining up to take a run at him.
He could do a lot of good for many teams throughout the league.
Luckily for the Bulls, he could net them a big return too.
If the Bulls play their cards right, they could get another All-Star in place of LaVine.
A trade involving LaVine might end up being one of the biggest of the offseason.
