Lavine is garbage. Offers nothing if he’s having an off night, which seems to happen a lot.
Also just looked up his contract. Dude has a player option for $49 million in 2026-27. Y’all really wanna be paying Lavine $49 million in 2027?

I like Lavine, he’s 28 and a good quality player. 40m/yr for 4 years is what makes me say no. We’d still need to re-sign and extend a bunch of the guys that would still be on our roster even after the proposed trade in this article, and his contract would negate most of them.

Considering we r a bottom 5 team offensively … we could use him

He would be a horrible fit here. He’s a guy with extremely high usage, low efficiency (this year at least) and not great assist percentage.

Thoughts on the proposed package here?

But is Zach Lavine the best fit for the Magic?
Nope…
