The Bulls are looking horrid this year. It looks like Lavine could have a great 2nd half of season being the only one who can probably score on a high professional level.
What do you think his rank of output can be in 2nd half?
What round would you draft him in this year?
I also have him in a keeper league for $15 with an IR spot available. Do you think he is worth keeping at that price point?
Thank you,

I got him in a league in a trade before hearing he'd be out a month. I like Zach, but I'm concerned that the Bulls will be horrible and at some point go into tank mode. This also makes me believe that they will take their time in bringing him back or limited his minutes/games.
I think he's a decent mid round gamble (I'd let him fall 5th or 6th).
I don't know much about auction drafts, but I will say that a 9th-11th round selection for Lavine makes sense. A lot of mocks I've been in have him around that spot. He'll be eased into the rotation at first so I expect him to be full speed around December. Personally I'm not a fan of drafting players who are already hurt, but if there's an IR slot there's a lot worse you can do with a 10th round pick.
I believe he could be a top-50 guy once he hits his stride. Question is ... when will that be? With an IR slot, I'd go as early as 7th round, but probably later is best.
