Why The New York Knicks Do The Deal 

For the last couple of seasons, that wouldn’t have even been a question. 

LaVine has been one of the most consistently dynamic scorers in the NBA for several years now. On the other hand, his play has declined slightly in 2022-23. 

At the same time, that’s why his price tag has lowered as well. The Knicks would do well to acquire LaVine at the cost of Hartenstein, two first-round picks, and a swap. In fact, it’s entirely possible that he’ll turn his play around in a new environment. 

After all, LaVine may not have optimal chemistry with fellow Bull DeMar DeRozan. DeRozan is gifted, but he’s ball-dominant, and as a subpar spacer, he doesn’t provide much help when LaVine has the rock.

By contrast, Randle is a better shooter who will space the floor while LaVine operates. Adding LaVine will give the Knicks a more dynamic offense and make them a better team.
