The Brooklyn Nets are unlikely to pursue a trade for Zach LaVine, sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.

The Nets have only Bridges and Johnson under guaranteed contracts for the 2025-26 season, leaving a cap sheet that can be painted like a canvas with even brighter colors. Maybe third-year guard Cam Thomas continues to bloom from first-round pick into a key installation. Maybe the next woebegone All-Star — not likely to be Bulls scorer Zach LaVine, league sources told Yahoo Sports — eyes Brooklyn and the glimmering practice facility along the East River. Any outcome seems bound to prominently factor the 6-foot-6 swingman with a memory full of daps, where a winning formula has Atlantic Avenue jumping like the New York Liberty’s playoff run — for which Bridges was a regular attendee.

This guy almost exclusively gets fed bullshit btw

But yeah common sense would say Nets don’t want Lavine

The jig is up on Zach Lavine. Guards who can drop 20+ a game are a dime and dozen now and many can defend/playmake better than Zach.

I'm a Bulls fan but I'm not holding my breath on getting much of anything for Zach or Demar.
