Zach LaVine (+7000)
This might very well be my favorite pick of the bunch. The Chicago Bulls went out of their way to make outstanding moves in free agency, adding Lonzo Ball, DeMar DeRozan, and Alex Caruso.
The Bulls already had a dynamic duo of Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic, so the expectations are extremely high for Chicago entering the regular season.
Even on a loaded roster, Zach LaVine is still the most talented player on the Bulls. While LaVine was once known for his jaw-dropping dunks in the dunk contest, he’s evolved into a well-rounded player.
LaVine recorded career-highs in points (27.4), rebounds (5.0), assists (4.9), and three-point percentage (41.9%) in 2020-21.

After making his first career All-Star Game a season ago, I could see Zach LaVine making the leap to MVP status, especially if the Bulls can live up to the hype.
