Recent reports say that Danny Ainge and the Utah Jazz no longer have Lauri Markkanen as untouchable for a trade. Lauri Markkanen has been a Utah Jazz favorite and the Utah Jazz love him, but if another team comes calling, Danny Ainge and the Utah Jazz will listen to any trade proposals.

Hey guys, how about a like and subscribe to the video!
We can’t trade him unless it’s a total fleece like Rudy trade.
No we will not trade him unless he asked for a trade
As an outsider, I don't see Lauri being traded, at least not immediately unless 2 things happen.
1. Is Jazz receives a massive offer that's too good to pass up
2. Lauri demands a trade
Imo Lauri should be traded to a contender because I've been trying to watch Jazz games, and clearly, Jazz isn't ready to compete yet. The younger players are going to need time to develop, while Lauri is 26yo which is still young but relative to NBA standards. This is the stage where players reach their apex, and then most who enter their 30s is where they start to decline.
This hurts worse than the Rudy and Don trades… but in Danny we trust. We never would've dreamed that we'd be in such good shape after those trades, and I expect that if Ainge trades the Finnisher it'll be just as good for us as the last two star trades were.
In Danny We Trust. 🫡
Please no hes one guy that would want to be here. He's a good locker room guy. Efficient doesn't complain hes going to be good another 6 years
OKC lurking with a Giddey based package
Hey Nerd. Thanks for your work. Good stuff on SLC Dunk too. You’re always a hero of mine.
Feels like Lauri timeline is off from Jazz re-build. Though I think Lauri needs to improve also has still has good number of years to do it.
Have you heard anything about KG’s ankle?
Why would they trade with OKC, if it isn't fo pick swaps and some player asset?…
I hope Josh Giddey is not in the trade, he is not that good and has some ?
If the Jazz trade Markannen, say to the Lakers, it better be for Austin Reeves, and another player/pick combo included; however, Reeves is supposedly off the trade market.
If the Blazers trade for Markannen then it better be their #4 2024 1st rd pick included in the package….
I hope they don't trade for, Malcolm Brogdon, atleast not by himslef, his defense is a ?
Trade Markannen or Collins and Clarkson to Detroit for a #1-1st rd 2024 pick and a player asset combo,…..as long as Jalen Duren is in the trade deal…I'm ok!
Work a 3 to 5 team trade to get:
1st rd pick(s)
Any/or multiple of the following, to name a few…… I'm good:
Jalen Duren
Caruso
Reeves
W. Carter
So on….
It's all up to what another team is willing to give up, and it won't be for another Superstar, it's highly unlikely!
Click bait
