Zach LaVine, coming off knee surgery, said he didn’t play at an All-Star level to start this season so his omission didn’t surprise a player who is focused on helping the Bulls make the playoffs.
Even when LaVine made the team the last two seasons, he always talked about team success as being his primary goal. As for individual goals, he appreciated the respect that All-Star berths gave him, but he also set his sights on bigger goals like All-NBA and All-Defense teams.
To LaVine's point, he averaged 20.5 points on 39.9 percent shooting, including 31.8 percent from 3-point range, in November. Those numbers jumped to 24.5 points per game in December and 26.1 points per game in January. Overall, LaVine is averaging 23.4 points on 46 percent shooting, including 37.6 percent from 3-point range, after his slow start.
"You’re going to have to take my actions. I’ve said that for the last six years," LaVine said."It’s a good time I’ll be able to spend with my family and continue to get more and more healthy and get ready for the rest of the season."
