The Jazz have expanded their stockpile of draft picks, by bagging three future unprotected draft picks, as well as two pick swaps, which means that they will have at least two picks in the first round for the next 6 NBA Drafts. And regardless of what they do, that is always going to pace them in a powerful and flexible position.
In barter for Mitchell, Utah poached former first round pick Collin Sexton, who has said yes to a contract extension of 4-years for $72 million. Meanwhile the Young Bull is 23-years of age, at his peak, and capable of dupliacting the scoring that the Jazz will lose with Mitchell gone. Lauri Markannen is a strong forward equipped with range and athleticism. He can also be more than a solid starter in the NBA, who could possibly be a great piece of this lineup. And, at last Ochai Agbaji is a deadly shooter from beyond the arc.
