Except for one season where he tore his ACL, Zach Lavine's stats have been getting better every single season since 2014. And yet, he hasn't played a single playoff game in his career.

Lavine is one of those rare talents who can shoot from 30 ft and dunk from the free-throw line. He averaged 25.5 points per game and shot 38% from beyond the arc. However, Chicago Bulls have failed to build a team around him that can pose a threat to other top teams.

Now, with Coby White's ability to play as the starting shooting guard, there's a good chance Zach will be traded to a team in exchange for multiple assets.

#7. Julius Randle

The New York Knicks signed Julius Randle on a 3-year contract last year. Despite Randle putting up good numbers, his Knicks teammates and the coaching staff have been unhappy with his playing style. He's often accused of dribbling too much and not passing the ball on time.

With the Knicks always trying to land a marquee superstar, there's a high probability that Julius Randle will be shipped in exchange. There are already some NBA trade rumors that Utah Jazz's Mike Conley might be headed to New York in exchange for Julius Randle.

#6. Kyle Kuzma

The world expected Kyle Kuzma to be an all-star this year and to be a member of LA Lakers' 'Big 3' along with LeBron James and Anthony Davis. However, Kuzma's points and minutes dropped drastically as compared to last season. Though the 25-year-old has the potential to be a dangerous player, the Lakers are in 'win-now' mode and they want a star who could be their third offensive option.

NBA trade rumors say the LA Lakers' are already looking to add a point guard who can get his own shot. Kyle Kuzma, along with other players will be an attractive trade package for many teams in exchange for an established star.

#5. Jrue Holiday

There is tremendous demand for a point guard who can score and defend at the same time. With Jrue Holiday set to enter free agency in 2021, the New Orleans Pelicans are looking to get the most off of him before he leaves.

The Pelicans are building for the future around the young core of Zion Williamson, Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram. Trading Jrue in exchange for a young-talent or future draft picks would be in the best interest of the organization.
