Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

What are the chances that Nurkic is flippable at the deadline?

I’m now hoping for a reverse bigger and better. . . as long as the Jazz have a positive net asset at the end of the day.

If someone wants off a bad contract, but I'm sure the Jazz will not want that.

I really wanted to see Sexton traded to a team that was trying to win.

Sexton was on a team that was ready to start contending after years of tanking (in which Collin himself had a major role). They promptly traded him away.

Maybe Charlotte finally puts it together.

Looks to me like they're more likely to tank next season.

Meh, I'm over it. Already moved on to Pornhub.

I choose to believe this is part two of the secret trade up with Charlotte allowing the Jazz to pick Ace.

I know AA wants his own guys to get minutes but the Nurkic I saw in Phoenix last season was unplayable.

It's unfortunate but Ainge just got himself in a bad situation trying to do a total rebuild with too many vet players on contract.

He's the center the Lakers are really going to end up with.

Jazz still need to get a back up center
Seems like they will keep Nurkic

 

[Coach Ellis]

Considering the result, I wonder what the Jazz could’ve gotten for him in 2022 when they were completely bowing the team up at the deadline?

1. Sexton is a clutch client. Jazz have a pretty good relationship with them. Maybe a favor there. Sexton will get plenty of minutes in a contract year.

2. You could likely flip Nurkic at the deadline for seconds if they are important to you.

3. Only one of our young core is a center. We needed a backup and preferably one on an expiring.

4. We probably SHOULD owe Charlotte even MORE assets for selecting Kon.

 

[JazzFever]

All I know is that the Jazz can’t have Sexton, Collins and Clarkson on the roster if they want a top pick in 2026.

I honestly don’t care that much HOW they accomplish this, but I’d prefer they add a couple of okay assets in the process.

Not sure why everyone keeps including Clarkson in these posts- dude’s on/off numbers are not conducive to winning games.
