Bulls' Zach LaVine (knee) to start in season debut on Saturday
NBC Sports Vincent Goodwell reports that Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine will start on Saturday as he makes his season debut.
What It Means:
LaVine has yet to play this season, after tearing his ACL less than a year ago. He will be limited to 20 minutes in his debut and probably for some time. Denzel Valentine will leave the starting lineup with Justin Holiday moving to small forward. There's a possibility that LaVine steals some minutes from point guards Jerian Grant and Kris Dunn as well.
Our models like LaVine to average 12.6 points, 3.1 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game this season.
