Zach LaVine is becoming one of the premier shooting guards in the entire NBA. As the Chicago Bulls re-tool and look to make a playoff push this season, he is entering a contract year.
As he finishes out his current four-year, $78 million deal, LaVine is set to become a free agent in 2022. As such, he’s looking for a massive payday and is well deserving of one.
With contract negotiations upcoming, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago has reported that LaVine is leaving Innovate Sports and BDA Sports and is expected to sign with Klutch Sports Group.
One of the top agencies in sports, Klutch represents some of the best players in the world. Guys like LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Trae Young headline as some of the top clients they represent.
For LaVine this is a very strategic move heading into what should be the most lucrative contract of his career to this point. Last season he was an NBA All-Star, averaging 27.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game.
