According to a report by Joe Cowley,  "there was a blowup between players at halftime of their latest loss, drawing the attention of Bulls coaches to go into the locker room while they were talking outside."

And as per Bulls Insider KC Johnson, who called it a "strong exchange", "sources said multiple teammates directed frustration at Zach LaVine, and the situation intensified."

In the meantime, all of this drama has other teams circling like vultures. According to Insider Shams Charania, “There are a host of teams right now that are monitoring the situation … trying to see whether the Bulls ultimately do make Zach LaVine available.”
