The 6ers have much bigger plans than absorbing Zach LaVines contract. I don't expect Philly to show much interest in Zach.
I don't think the Sixers would absorb Lavine, but it's highly probable that they'll absorb Caruso. The Sixers have a lot of roster spots to fill, and Maxey gets his max this summer. I don't think they'll have much interest in big money free agents like Lavine or George.
The Hornets are another team who can give the Bulls relief from Lavine's contract next season. AK could send them Lavine for Bertans and Micic. The Hornets would be absorbing twenty million onto their books. It would be crazy if Lavine and Lonzo ended up in Charlotte.
I mean, *I* think they should probably build out the roster, but there’s no reason to predict Daryl Morey wouldn’t build a team around 3 max guys.
