Trade For Utah Jazz Star Donovan Mitchell

Utah Jazz Receive: G Russell Westbrook, G Immanuel Quickley, 2023 First-Round Pick (NYK), 2023 First-Round Pick (DAL via NYK) 2025 First-Round Pick (NYK), 2027 First-Round Pick (LAL), 2029 First-Round Pick (LAL)
New York Knicks Receive: G Donovan Mitchell
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: F Julius Randle, G Jordan Clarkson

Whenever you have the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, you shouldn’t pass on it.

This deal takes care of the Mitchell-to-New York dilemma and the Randle-to-anywhere problem at the same time. If nobody else benefits from it, the Knicks would almost surely pull the trigger on this one without hesitation.

Of course, it takes two to tango – or in some cases, three. Luckily, everyone comes out a winner here.

The Utah Jazz get the treasure trove of draft capital they’re said to be seeking for Mitchell. They also get a massive expiring contract in Westbrook. Their books will be looking especially clean in 2023-23 if they make this trade.

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers take on some risk here. If Randle shoots as poorly as he did in 2021-22 for them in 2022-23, he won’t be a significant upgrade from Westbrook.

On the other hand, if he puts up his 2020-21 numbers, he should significantly elevate this team’s ceiling. With that said, if they can’t stomach the risk, the Knicks may need to look elsewhere to move Randle.
