After allowing him to hit free agency, the Chicago Bulls re-signed guard Zach LaVine on Friday to a five-year, $215.2 million max contract with a player option for the fifth year, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium.

In 67 games during the 2021-22 campaign, LaVine averaged 24.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.8 three-pointers per game while shooting 47.6 percent from the field and 38.9 percent from beyond the arc, earning his second consecutive All-Star nod.

LaVine helped lead the Bulls to the playoffs for the first time since the 2016-17 season, although they fell in the first round to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The 27-year-old enjoyed a career year in his fourth season with the Bulls in 2020-21 with 27.4 points, 4.9 assists and 5.0 rebounds a night.
