The Utah Jazz aren’t actively looking to trade Lauri Markkanen, but they might consider offers for him if they decide to rebuild and aim for a higher chance at a top pick in the 2025 NBA draft.
“Their goal has been to bring in players around Markkanen,” said Adrian Wojnarowski. “But there are a lot of teams looking at that 2025 draft next season. It could be a historic draft, especially at the top.
“Brooklyn made a decision they’re going to be at the top of the draft next year. Utah hasn’t made that decision. But I think Markkanen is an interesting inflection point for them. But I don’t think it’s their intention to move him.”
