Lauri has already won MIP award in his first year ( 2022-2023 ) with the Jazz. Next should be MVP award but winning that will be much harder because SGA, Doncic etc have also playing well.

As much i hate to say this i will say this still. Jazz do not deserve Lauri so far Lauri has scored almost half of all Jazz points. Only thing which can block Lauri's allstar selection is Jazzs losing record and other is injury without those Lauri is allstar very likely. Jazz have to decide...

Has Zach Lowe mentioned any playoff or contender teams looking for Lauri?

Please don't jinx.

Even NBA commentators mistaken that happens for everyone.

Why Jazz cannot make playoffs? Utah Mammoth has surprised everyone in NHL so if they can fight for playoff spot then why not Jazz. Yeah i know season is still early. But surprises can happen and that's the sports ''salt''.

IT happend. Lauri 51PTS New career high point total.

Is there any sense to trade Lauri if Jazz really could have solid or good chance to make playoffs. I get that draft pick logic but Jazz can trade Lauri into next off season too if they want it. However Jazz have to decide some point what direction they should go.

In his allstar year ( 2022-2023 ) Lauri had 49 point game and Jazz were feeding him to get 50+ points for Lauri but it didin't happen. Maybe that's possible this year at least lets hope that.

That can be said whole Jazz team.

Lauri 40PTS 13 rebs. Where this guy was last year.

Maybe Hendricks is not yet 150% recovered of his leg injury that injury was so nasty and brutal. I don't know how much time those injuries needs but absolutely it isn't easy task to come back of that so fast.

Yep.

That's true. No pay no championship titles and new championship banners to the rafters.

Really? I think getting rid of Sexton and Clarkson is one factor too.

You didn't tell me news buddy. I watched all Finland's games in Eurobasket so i knew that but the point was that if Lauri would have had better luck with his scoring and shooting especially vs Greece Finland would have won bronze game. Despite playing with injuries Lauri still made...

Spurs are already paying for Fox and Wemby's extension is coming some point too. If Spurs have to pay 3 allstar players ( Fox, Lauri and Wemby ) that's about 50-55% of entire cap-space so they cannot extend their new rookie contracts ( Castle and Harper ) in that situation.

Wrong. Both ( Lauri and Kessler ) should have suitors in trade market. But is there any sense to trade Lauri and Kessler if Jazz are play in / playoff hunt lets say in January / February. It's of course great to see Lauri playing well now. In my opinion he didn't play so good in Eurobasket vs...

I don't know is younger Ainge smarter than his daddy but somehow i have a feeling Jazz front office has decided let Lauri play close allstar level this year just to boost his trade value. Also Kessler can get traded with these games usually RFA player who's not signed his extension will turn...

I think it was passable but that's it. Susijengi as a team was mediocre and neutral overall depth outside of Lauri and Mikael Jantunen was thinner than toilet paper. Point-guards and whole backcourt was meh defence was melt cheese too often, rebounding, rim protection and shot blocking was iffy...
