Granted this might be a bit premature, but given how the start to the season has panned out, the attention has already somewhat shifted to the NBA draft and the trade market, and given the Jazz will likely be sellers, I wanted to see your guys’ thoughts on where some of our most appealling trade chips may end up. We don’t have too many profiles that fit the mould of a what a contender would be looking to add though, given the lack of perimeter defenders and shooters.
Kelly Olynyk- I think he’d be a great fit on Golden State and there have been concerns that they are too small with only Looney (6’'9) and Saric as recognised bigs
Jordan Clarkson- Miami Heats offense has been really struggling, could see Clarkson head down there to provide a scoriing spark, but not sure how Pat Riley and Ainges relationship will effect things
Ochai Agbaji- Whilst its unlikely we trade him, he is the type of profile that a contending would go after, a team first role player. If Philly can’t wiggle loose someone like Anunoby, or Mikal Bridges would they throw a pick or two to the Jazz for Agbaji
Conversely if we were to go on a bit of a run, a no brainer target for me would be Tyus Jones
Would yall trading Markkanen for 4 first picks?
We need a solid veteran point guard. I am not sure who that is but I am sure a bundle of Clarkson KO and a pick (or sexton) could net am above average PG
I don’t watch enough heat to know if he is worth it but Lowry comes to mind
