Lakers target Zach LaVine's wife Hunter LaVine drops 2-word reaction to Blake Snell’s $182m Dodgers move

For several seasons now, the Los Angeles Lakers have been rumored as a potential landing spot for Zach LaVine. In addition to being represented by Klutch Sports, which is run by LeBron James' longtime friend Rich Paul, LaVine also played at UCLA and owns a house in California.

Given these connections, fans took notice when LaVine's wife, Hunter LaVine, reacted to MLB pitcher Blake Snell's $182 million deal with the LA Dodgers. On Wednesday, Snell announced that he was joining the Dodgers by simply sharing a photo of himself wearing a Dodgers jersey on Instagram.

Along with the photo, he simply wrote:

"LA"

The post caught the attention of Zach LaVine's wife, who wrote:

"HEY NEIGHBOR"

Zach LaVine's wife, Hunter LaVine comments on Blake Snell's Instagram post (@snellzilla4)

It appears that Blake Snell liked the comment amid plenty of rumors that LaVine could finally land with the Lakers this season.

While nothing has been finalized, Joe Crowley of The Chicago Sun-Times reported that the Bulls have both LaVine and Nikola Vucevic on the trade block.

While this isn't surprising, given that the team has tried to trade the two in the past, the Lakers are currently in need of perimeter shooting and another big man to pair with Anthony Davis. Perhaps this time will be different.
