Could Bulls guard Zach LaVine's return hamper progress of Coby White?

The Bulls know they have a Zach LaVine problem. A team source reiterated that trading the two-time All-Star remains priority one, two, and three this summer, with the hope to not only get off the remaining three years, nearly $138 million left on the max contract, but also to make sure the runway remained clear for the continued emergence of Coby White as a lead guard. The issue facing the organization, however, is that not only is LaVine coming off season-ending foot surgery, but his reputation of not being a difference maker when it comes to impacting winning didn't exactly subside throughout the 2023-24 campaign. The Bulls couldn't find any takers at the February trade deadline, despite being aggressive in trying to move LaVine going back to December.
