Utah Jazz Receive: F Davis Bertans, 2025 First-Round Pick (DAL)
Dallas Mavericks Receive: G Collin Sexton
On the other hand, it isn’t only Sexton’s 2022-23 outlook that’s unclear. You could say the same of the Utah Jazz as a whole.
After trading Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell, many expected this team to “tank” this season. With a potentially historic draft class on the horizon, that would be sensible. As constructed, the Jazz may be too good to do it.
This Jazz team doesn’t have a star player. On the other hand, it’s got quality NBA players at every position. They won’t be in the running for the NBA title this year, but as constructed, they should make a run at the play-in tournament.
Perhaps that’s not an issue. On the other hand, it’s equally possible that General Manager Danny Ainge is simply auditioning a lot of these guys up to the trade deadline.

Even if the Jazz are surprisingly competitive until then, they should be able to lose ample games if they flip a few key contributors for draft capital.
Is this the right package to flip Sexton for?
