Absolutely not in the near future. He is one of those guys that actually is much better than his current market value.

EDIT: One of the reasons Jazz went to a winning streak mid-season is how Hardy played rotations unlike most teams in the NBA. Basically just Lauri was getting high minutes for starters, and we run Sexton with many other guys between 25-30 minutes. Sexton had such a good efficient scoring he surely would think to have gotten more minutes,if the FO was pushing it, maybe for possible trade. With Lauri's minutes, Sexton would have averaged probably several points more per game. Which would have increased his value

I don’t think it happens before the season. In the Lauri trade thread I think there’s some expectation that we can just immediately trade Sexton/Kessler to tank harder….I’m not sure that’s the case or the plan. I think if we keep Lauri we’re banking on our top 4 odds not being significantly different, but understanding that the downside potential is worse.

I can see Sexton traded if he has a really good start to next season. If we let him loose and puts up big numbers I think that could create a big market for him and DA could decide to move him if the offer is right.

Otherwise, I don’t think people are wrong that DA is patient. He’s sabotaged tanking efforts 2x in a row already. This team is significantly worse coming into this season, but I still don’t expect him to ship away Sexton and Kessler easily.

I think they should be able to trade Kessler at ~fair value before the season and they definitely should if we’re keeping Lauri (and since Collin will probably not fetch even fair value).

They probably can, but I don’t think they will.

I thought that was JCx2 but it’s Collin(s)x2. Me dumb.

Uhh… the Charlotte and Chicago picks? They’re both maybe fake 1sts that turn into 2nds eventually.

Ya I said 2 firsts but they could be top 10 protected or late firsts.
Us losing more would also be something we get from the trade therefore improving our 2025 pick

Sure. I’m just saying that’s the next best nexus of fair return and tank value. NY is starting to look pretty desperate and they have a couple of rounds in the chamber. Atlanta and New Orleans also look like good targets.
 
LAL, DET, and CHO are the first teams that come to mind who could be buyers. We'll have to make it a couple months into the season before it happens though.
 
One big problem with trading either Sexton or Collins is salary matching. It's just tough to find deals that actually work for the teams that might want these guys on just a salary matching standpoint, before you even look at who might have picks to give us for Sexton. Under this CBA there's so little flexibility to make deals happen, just seems unlikely we'll see trades for either of these guys.
 
What are the chances we actually let him loose this season? I’m taking 33+ minutes a game?

I feel like there’s a slight chance Hardy starts Clarkson over him lol.

Sexton is fairly easy to salary match for most teams that would have the asset capital to give us something close to worthwhile.

Collins the issue isnt really salary matching at all. It's just that his production doesnt match the cost and he isnt a simple fit.
 
How many trades with real players (top 6 rotation players) occur after 7/15 but before the season?

I can’t imagine very many.
