Utah Jazz Receive: G/F Andrew Wiggins, F Jonathan Kuminga, 2023 First-Round Pick (GSW)

Golden State Warriors Receive: G Donovan Mitchell, F Royce O’Neale

This trade depends on the outcome of the Golden State Warriors’ season. If they come away from the year with an NBA championship, they’re unlikely to do anything as bold as making a move for Mitchell.

In fact, one could argue that the Warriors have already been successful enough to avoid that route. They’re parting with a lot in this package.

Wiggins has emerged as an outstanding 3-and-D wing with secondary shot-creating skills. Kuminga could be a future star. An unprotected first-round pick is a valuable asset.

Furthermore, does Mitchell really fit with this group? Will his ball-dominance step on Curry’s toes? What about Jordan Poole’s? Would such an acquisition force Klay Thompson to the 3 full-time?

That’s a lot of questions. There’s one answer that fits all of them, and it’s Donovan Mitchell’s talent. If this Warriors team falls short of its ultimate goal in 2021-22, adding him into the fold could make them an unstoppable force next season.

If it works out, it’ll be worth everything the Warriors gave up and more.
