The Knicks would be sending out a trade offer mostly built on draft assets being the appeal for the Utah Jazz. They would part with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, but they’d also send out a future first-round pick.
In terms of the players involved in the trade, the Jazz would receive Rudy Gobert’s French National Team teammate Evan Fournier and Immanuel Quickley, Cam Reddish, and Obi Toppin.
