Phoenix Suns will monitor Zach LaVine as the trade deadline quickly approaches. He's in his eighth season with the Bulls.

The Suns trading Bradley Beal for Zach LaVine would be a nightmare scenario for the franchise ahead of the trade deadline.

According to NBA insider Jake Fischer, the Phoenix Suns could be interested in trading Bradley Beal to the Chicago Bulls for Zach LaVine. Beal has a no-trade clause in his contract, so the Suns can’t trade him without his permission.

During the Hoop Collective discussion, Windhorst’s ESPN colleague Tim Bontemps also questioned why the Bulls would be motivated to swap out LaVine for Beal, given the limited draft assets the Suns could offer as sweeteners and the All-Star caliber season LaVine is having so far this year (24.0 PPG on .512/.444/.792 shooting).

Bradley Beal and Zach LaVine are in trade rumors, and there's a chance that they could be swapped for each other.

According to NBA insider K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Sports Network, the Milwaukee Bucks are interested in acquiring Zach LaVine from the Chicago Bulls. Jimmy Butler has requested a trade from the Miami Heat and wants to get traded to the Phoenix Suns.

Which NBA contenders are most desperate to make a trade? Tim Bontemps and Brian Windhorst have new intel, plus the latest from the Paris games and the other lineup change that's fueling Miami.

The Phoenix Suns could upgrade their lineup by swapping Bradley Beal to the Chicago Bulls for their star guard.
