Why The Utah Jazz Do The Deal
Meanwhile, there are mostly differences between the Jazz and the Lakers.
So far, neither club has looked like a contender in 2022-23. On the other hand, the Jazz are in no rush to. Unlike the Lakers, this team has its own draft capital, and plenty from other teams as well.
They might as well add to their collection. Two first-round picks are a good return for an aging Conley, Malik Beasley, and Jarred Vanderbilt. It may have other consequences for this team, too.
Namely, it may help them bottom out ahead of the draft. The Jazz are a little behind in the Victor Wembayama race, but they can still enter it.

Either way, this club should be more concerned with lottery odds than they are with wins and losses at the moment.
The deadline is quickly approaching, and they’re in no position to contend.
