NBA star Zach LaVine was the guest of honor at swanky party at a fancy Chicago hotel … BUTTT, then he bolted ’cause BALL IS LIFE!!
Haute Living and luxury watch brand HYT threw the bash at The Manor in The Virgin Hotel in Chicago … all to celebrate LaVine gracing the cover of HL mag (and his high school sweetheart, Hunter Mar’s bday).
The best part … LaVine left the party around midnight to go to the gym and SHOOT 500 3-POINTERS until 1:30 in the morning.
Why, you ask? ZL’s competing in this weekends 3 point contest … and he trying to be the only person to ever win the 3 and dunk contest.
LaVine won in 2015 and 2016 … in crazy impressive fashion.
But Zach’s game is more than dunking … he’s been killin’ it with the Bulls this season, averaging 25 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
If making history wasn’t enough motivation, we’re told HYT’s CEO let LaVine borrow a $50K luxury watch … and told him if he wins Saturday night, he could keep the timepiece.
No pressure!!
