Why The Utah Jazz Do The Deal 

In contrast to the other teams involved here, the Jazz do this strictly for the future. They’ll be expecting to be worse in 2023-24.

Perhaps that’s what’s best for this organization. The Jazz are comfortably outside of the playoff picture this season. They aren’t ready to compete. It may be time to start looking ahead. 

If the front office agrees, this deal should be perfect for them. Obviously, the centerpiece here is Kuminga. This is a young player with infinite upside who will get every opportunity in Salt Lake City.

Still, Bamba holds some intrigue at 25. Throw in a pair of first-round picks, and this deal could entice the Jazz to part with their best player.
