Toronto Raptors

Utah Jazz Receive: F/C Khem Birch, F/C D.J. Wilson, G Malachi Flynn, 2024 First-Round Pick (Top 10 Protected – TOR) 

Toronto Raptors Receive: G Jordan Clarkson 

The Toronto Raptors were one of the most interesting teams in the NBA last season. Nobody could say that they were afraid to go against the grain. 

The Raptors ran Pascal Siakam, traditionally a wing, at the 5 on a routine basis. They had some success with the model too, although surely, this group would like to advance past the first round of the playoffs as soon as possible. 

Some will point to the center position as a means of doing so. To be sure, the Toronto Raptors could go out and get a traditional big man this summer. At the same time, they could also stand to improve their guard depth. 

After all, the young Malachi Flynn isn’t cutting it for a team with serious playoff ambitions. On the other hand, he has flashed enough potential to be worth taking a flier on from the Jazz’s point of view.

Still, this deal is about the same thing every Jazz deal had fundamentally been about this summer: First-round picks.

If the Jazz can move their Sixth Man of the Year candidate this offseason, they’ll be adding to one of the league’s most impressive collections.
