Utah Jazz

The Utah Jazz are struggling to stay in playoff contention. With one of the league’s more talented teams, they need to make a move to build off their phenomenal 2017-2018 campaign. They did add Kyle Korver, but he hasn’t proven to be too much help.

Bringing in Draymond Green next to Rudy Gobert would create one dynamic frontcourt defensively. Offensively, Donavon Mitchell would be leading the charge but would also thrive off Green’s ability to distribute at a high clip.

Without many young assets outside of the untouchable Mitchell, the Warriors would be bringing home picks and cap space in this trade. There aren’t many other trade-worthy players on the Jazz, and Korver would at least bring in a capable sharpshooter.

The Warriors could use the picks, and even with Mitchell, Gobert and Green, those picks still have potential to fall in the lottery.
