Sixers LaVine trade

Philadelphia 76ers

After finally making the James Harden trade, the Philadelphia 76ers find themselves in a flexible situation heading into the NBA Trade Deadline. Even though they've played better as of late, it's still likely that they'll have to make a move before the deadline if they want to keep pace with the rest of the contenders in the Eastern Conference. The big question is whether Zach LaVine is the answer for the Sixers.

As good as Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid have been this season, the Sixers need to be careful in finding their third star - who will act as the final piece of their championship puzzle. LaVine could be a fit but the fact that it's far from a guarantee makes it a bit more complicated. After the Harden deal, there's an easy path for the Sixers to pull off a move for LaVine.

In this deal, the Bulls would get three draft picks and at least two quality players. With the way Harris has played this season, he should be viewed as a player of value for Chicago as they reportedly want to see how their team looks without LaVine before blowing it up. Maybe this is a deal that helps the Bulls remain competitive.
