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
