I suggest he has more value for minimal reasons, one obviously not being hurt and two really just got more shine and love as a star playing with better teammates and making the playoffs than Sexton who was basically a tank commander that had to play with players younger and less ready for the pro level competition like Garland and Okoro as starters next to him.Sextons vets were either digruntled to be on a rebuiulding team or were hurt all the time. Spider is not better than Sexton on paper. The holdup from there becomes how many picks New York will include in a deal and which young players out of the group of Obi Toppin, RJ Barrett, Quentin Grimes and Immanuel Quickley.”

“The Knicks would very likely have to include Fournier or Derrick Rose in a trade for Mitchell, as they would be required for salary-matching purposes. “The Jazz are known to be looking for a package of young players, as well as multiple first round picks in exchange for Mitchell,” RealGM noted, citing The Athletic’s Shams Charania. While the Jazz are open to keeping him, it is seeming less and less likely he will return to Utah. He averaged 25.9 points, 5.2 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 67 games last season. Mitchell, 25, is 6-foot-1 and has spent his entire career with the Jazz. Surely, more teams than what we’ve listed either have or wil soon contact Ainge. Utah previously did not have an interest in Barrett, per reports.Įither way, with Nets star Kevin Durantdeciding to stay put, the trade talk around the NBA has now shifted to what’s next for Mitchell and the Jazz. The Cavs have actually had talks with the Jazz on a Mitchell deal in recent days, as we relayed here.Īs for the Knicks, per several outlets, the Jazz have warmed up to the idea of taking back RJ Barrett in a potential deal for Mitchell. The Knicks have access to a far more significant package of draft picks than the Heat currently have at their disposal.Two teams other than the Knicks have made trade offers for Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell that Utah head of basketball operations Danny Ainge says he likes, per Marc Berman of the New York Post.Īlong with the Knicks, the Hornets, Wizards and Cavaliers are all said to also have an interest in Mitchell. So it could come down to whether a Knicks offer with RJ Barrett would trump a Heat offer built around Herro. Mitchell: The buzz is that the New York Knicks are all-in for a trade for Mitchell. Still, doubt Riley at your own risk after the acquisitions of Shaquille O’Neal, LeBron James and Butler. Even then, Adebayo and Simmons cannot both be on the Nets roster due to the rule that prohibits a team from having two players who have been acquired in a trade on maximum designated rookie-scale extension. Such a deal would make the Heat better, but not necessarily whole.ĭurant: Adebayo is a factor here, including at least one highly influential member of the Heat who is reluctant to sign off.

Mitchell: The talent upgrade would be undeniable, but in adding an undersized wing, the Heat still would find themselves at a power deficit.
