Utah Jazz Receive: G Spencer Dinwiddie, F Josh Green, 2025 First-Round Pick (Top 5 Protected – DAL)
Dallas Mavericks Receive: G Mike Conley
If this trade occurs, it may come from the fallout of some previous deals. It’s possible that the Utah Jazz will host a massive firesale this summer.
Rudy Gobert is almost certainly gone. It seems likely that he’s not on the same page as Donovan Mitchell. Rumors continually suggest as much, and their on-court chemistry surely looked disrupted last season.
Of course, the Jazz could trade both Gobert and Mitchell this summer. Some rumors indicate that Mitchell would prefer to play in a bigger market.
If that’s the case, there is no Gobert trade that would convince him to stay. Salt Lake City won’t boom quickly enough to qualify as a bigger market in Mitchell’s career.

Of course, rumors are rumors for a reason. They are not facts. It’s possible that Mitchell is content in Utah, so long as Gobert is sent packing. If that’s the case, this trade may not make sense for the Jazz.
Or does it?
