Why The Utah Jazz Should Pursue This Trade
Firstly, if Donovan Mitchell doesn’t demand a trade, they arguably shouldn’t.
Giving up the best player in a deal generally isn’t optimal. The Utah Jazz are unequivocally doing that here. Still, if they’re forced to, this trade gives them plenty of options.
They could choose to remain competitive. Herro could be a leap away from making up a large portion of Mitchell’s production. With Rudy Gobert manning the defense, the Jazz always have a chance.
They could tinker with this roster and avoid a route this organization has not traditionally taken: a full-scale rebuild. On the other hand, they could break from convention.
