When the Utah Jazz traded Donovan Mitchell to the Cleveland Cavaliers, they got back a haul of epic proportions. The Cavs gave up too much for Mitchell. Even if the team sees newfound postseason success with their current core, it was still too much to get Mitchell. They gave up Lauri Markken and Collin Sexton; those two alone should’ve been enough, but then you throw in then-rookie Ochai Agbaji and a host of first-round picks, and the deal was too good to say no to.
The Jazz are set and heading into a new era of basketball, one built around Finnish superstar Lauri Markkanen, who broke out last season and made his first All-Star team with the Jazz.
