Zach LaVine

Who says the New York Knicks’ only realistic targets are role players?

Zach LaVine is one of the biggest names in free agency this summer. He’ll have his share of suitors. As of now, it’s unclear what the hyper-athletic scoring guard is looking for.

He may return to the Bulls. They had a solid 2021-22 campaign. On the other hand, they fell well short of title contention. Could their shortcomings be enough to convince LaVine to be the face of the New York Knicks?

Surely, he’d be a dream acquisition for the organization. His ability to operate as an alpha scorer will take some pressure off of Randle to do the same. If he could focus on his strong facilitating skills while operating as a strong No. 2, this team could make some noise in 2022-23.
