The Utah Jazz could still have more work to do before the NBA trade deadline.
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: Kyle Anderson, Walter Clayton Jr., Taylor Hendricks, Georges Niang, Lakers' 2027 first-round pick (top-four protection), 2027 first-round pick (most favorable of Cleveland and Minnesota), Phoenix's 2031 first-round pick
The Jazz made a major move to acquire two-time All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. on Tuesday.
As league sources told The Athletic, Utah’s plan is to build a dynamic frontcourt around Jackson, Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler, who is currently out for the season recovering from shoulder surgery. Add in point guard Keyonte George, and the Jazz could field one of the more intriguing starting lineups in the league next season.
The Memphis Grizzlies are moving on from former Defensive Player of the Year, Jaren Jackson Jr., trading him to the Utah Jazz in an 8-player deal that also includes some future first-round picks.
Markkanen made his All-Star debut when the game was in Salt Lake City back in 2023. That year, he won the league’s Most Improved Player award while averaging 25 points a night. He beat out Oklahoma City’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and New York’s Jalen Brunson for the honor.
During the Danny Ainge (and now Austin Ainge) era, the Utah Jazz have had an issue with being bad to prioritize their draft positioning, aka tanking. While they hold a protected first-round pick of their own in 2026, the Jazz are making a big swing to improve this roster.
