This could have been the season for Zach LaVine to be selfish. His former co-star, DeMar DeRozan, is gone. The bottom fell out of the defense with the departure of Alex Caruso.

The Chicago Bulls failed to find a trade partner in the summer to get Zach LaVine's contract off the books. With three years remaining on his deal, he was still set to earn $138 million.
