Something. Just traded 1 First Rounder for 3 future First Rounders as Utah seems to be entering an extended rebuild, or at least realizing you can only bring in so many young guys and also improve. Regardless, this feels like the move you make before you make a MOVE. Feels like Jimmy is coming back west, folks.

Honestly not sure what Utah gets outta this other than consolidating picks closer together?
I think the Jazz had more pics than they can use and they are betting that the Suns will be bad in 2031. I would like to see the Lakers do something like that. They should talk with OKC to see if they can do something similar. OKC have more pics than they can possibly ever use.
This is actually good news for the Lakers. I’ve always believed the Lakers 2029 and 2031 first round picks would be among the most valuable picks available, especially considering LeBron would be gone, Davis older, and Lakers ownership and management inept.
Only problem is these picks need to be offered and unprotected, neither of which Rob Pelinka has done yet. All we have ever offered is protected single pick. We need to get serious. We have 3 swaps that could be used instead of picks if we need. Rob must make moves.
