Zach LaVine Buyout Rumors & Should Steph Curry Ask For a Trade?
from Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association · host Locked On Podcast Network
Could Zach LaVine be the next big name to hit the market? Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize react to a report that the Sacramento Kings have told LaVine he isn't guaranteed a role despite opting into his $49 million contract, debating whether a buyout makes sense and which contenders should be interested. Then they shift to Golden State, where new reporting suggests the Warriors also passed on a chance to acquire Jaylen Brown before striking out on Giannis Antetokounmpo and LeBron James. Did the Warriors miss another opportunity, and should Steph Curry start thinking about finishing his career somewhere else? Finally, the crew heads into The Rotation Lab to build the Charlotte Hornets' opening-night lineup after trading LaMelo Ball, examining who takes over the offense, how the frontcourt fits together, and whether Charlotte has enough playmaking to stay competitive.
