Why The Utah Jazz Do The Deal
Whether the Jazz are interested in this trade will likely depend on their view of Tyler Herro.
For what it’s worth, experts are torn on his long-term upside. Given his elite talent for making tough shots, some absolutely see star upside. On the other hand, given his defensive limitations and lack of floor vision, others see a long-term sixth man.
That’s still a quality outcome. The NBA’s history is littered with talented, highly-regarded players who filled that role. On the other hand, it’s not quite enticing enough to coerce the Jazz into parting with Mitchell.
Otherwise, this doesn’t quite look like the package most expect the Jazz to pursue. Generally, they’re seen as coveting draft capital above all else.

With that said, if their front office is high on Herro, the two first-round picks and two swaps they’re landing here ought to be enough to entice them. Is it too much for the Heat to give up?
