[Saba Sports News] Despite the Chicago Bulls’ impressive 102-97 comeback victory over the Miami Heat, Zach LaVine’s subdued mood post-game drew attention. The win at the United Center in Chicago broke the Heat’s seven-game winning streak, but LaVine, the first to leave the court while others celebrated, seemed less spirited.
His push aside of a PR staff member, intended for a postgame interview, was later clarified by LaVine as a “miscommunication,” denying any frustration. He expressed focus on the upcoming rematch in Miami, rather than celebration.
Amidst ongoing trade rumors and the Bulls’ average season start, LaVine’s future with the team and his reaction are under scrutiny.
