Cleveland Cavaliers Receive: F Bojan Bogdanovic

A three-team trade with a lot of moving parts could be something that the New York Knicks, Utah Jazz and Cleveland Cavaliers try and work out. The Cavaliers are involved in this deal because there have been reports of Utah expressing interest in landing Collin Sexton in a sign-and-trade deal.

If that helps bolster the return package to Utah, the Knicks should get involved and allow them to be the third team. In this scenario, Cleveland bolsters their wing rotation as well, landing veteran Bojan Bogdanovic to insert either into their starting lineup or as a high-scoring sixth man off the bench.

New York is fronting a large portion of the package heading to Utah. Derrick Rose and Evan Fournier are used mostly to match up the salaries. Cam Reddish and Obi Toppin are the young pieces that help sweeten the deal for the now rebuilding Jazz.

In addition to that, they are sending an unprecedented six first-round picks to Utah. That is 75 percent of the tradable first-round picks they have at their disposal, providing the Jazz with the kind of draft capital that will bring anyone to the negotiating table.
