[Fischer] The Utah Jazz are committed to building around Lauri Markkanen and intend to sign him to a contract extension this Summer, per @JakeLFischer. One of their trade targets to help improve the roster? Nets G/F Mikal Bridges.

Lol Thunder, Lakers, and Sixers fans offering us trash picks for him. I wonder if we offer OG a max
Everyone is interested in Bridges, so I doubt that part happens.
But yeah barring a godfather offer Lauri is staying.
Nets have made some real dumb moves in the past.. They are due for another one.
Honestly if Ainge calls them, they should be very worried and hang up immediately. 😂
Loving the amount of news coming out tonight, it’s just fun.
Haven’t built anything around Lauri yet, why start now?
I would love to get Bridges, but I’m not sure that this roster is close enough to contention for us to make a swing for the fences move like that quite yet. We are still at least a couple seasons of building away.
I love Lauri as much as the next guy but I don’t know if you build around him… unless you build around him as your number 2 guy… which actually makes sense cause if he was the number 1 guy you’d build beneath him
