    If Lauri asks to be moved, or indicates that he doesn’t want to re-sign, I think the Thunder are a logical partner and a package similar to this would be probably a great return. I would think Ainge would push for Cason Wallace over Dieng, or would ask for a fourth pick frp.

    However, I don’t see Utah trading Lauri unless he asks to be moved or indicates he would not re-sign. Just because Utah isn’t contending doesn’t mean they’re looking to tank this season — Utah is more likely to trade for Zach Lavine or another All-star than they are offloading Lauri Markkanen at this point.
