Due to his new contract, the value of high-flying Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine has been hotly contested. The question is, how high can LaVine soar?

As Zach LaVine settles into life as the Chicago Bulls‘ highly paid shooting guard, the debate rages about how good he really is. At this point, we know that LaVine is as athletic as any guard in the NBA, and we know that he likes to shoot the ball. After all, his position is shooting guard. But what else do we know?
