3. Zach LaVine, Chicago Bulls
An argument could be made for Zach LaVine to be behind the King, it could also be made for him to be No. 1 or 2. I will say LaVine is almost unmatched on the open fastbreak and has one of the highest vertical leaps in combine history with 46-inches so every time he dunks it is a highlight.
For the first time in his career, LaVine averaged over 20 points per game (23.7). The Bulls leading scorer also set career-highs in rebounds (4.7), assists (4.5), and field goal percentage (46.7). The season was a disappointment but LaVine’s output was a bright spot and he will be the primary scorer again for the NBA’s youngest team.
The two-time and back-to-back Slam Dunk Champion (2015, 2016) has been working all offseason on his vertical and lower body strength coming off his best season yey should make for an exciting year.
