With Zach LaVine headed to unrestricted free agency, Bulls general manager Marc Eversley said the organization is committed to re-signing the two-time All-Star.
"We’re prepared to do what it will take to bring Zach back in the fold and be a Chicago Bull," Eversley said Thursday after the Bulls selected Arizona wing Dalen Terry with the 18th overall pick."We look forward to sitting down with Zach and Rich Paul and talking about what the future will look like for Zach LaVine and the Chicago Bulls."
That answer, which referenced LaVine's agent in Paul, came in response to a direct question about whether the Bulls are prepared to offer LaVine a maximum contract. The Bulls not only can offer LaVine an extra fifth year of salary that other teams can't but also higher annual raises. A full, five-year maximum contract offer from the Bulls would be worth roughly $212 million, while a rival offer would be for four years and roughly $157 million.
"Zach, two-time All-Star, he's an Olympian, he's been a terrific Chicago Bull thus far," Eversley said."It's our every intention to bring him back. We're excited about the opportunity to sit down and talk to him. We feel like he'll be excited to sit down and talk with us. And we're looking forward to that day."
