Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I wonder if Gobert’s market isn’t as strong as we think or hoped it is.
Too big of a market for defensive centers this summer. Both Mitch Robinson and Capella are available. If you expand that to all centers there‘s Ayton Vuce and Nurkic. Not a great time to trade your center because there were simply way too many options out there. We were victim ourselves when we went for Conley in a small market year for PGs and paid 50% more than we were supposed to.

Myles Turner is also being shopped.
 
Centers available this off-season:

Free agency: DeAndre Ayton, Mitchell Robinson, Mo Bamba, Jusuf Nurkic, and Nic Claxton

Yeah good luck finding a good offer for Rudy. I'd look to see what we can get for DM/JC/Bogey/Royce at this point

I think Royce, Conley, and Bojan still have value as trade pieces.

Royce is a solid role player on a 2 yr/$18M deal for teams that miss on guys with their MLE.
The veteran PG market is extremely dry and Conley was good in the regular season.
Bogey is still a solid scorer and is on the last year of his deal at $19.5M.

Okay, now how many of those other centers are All Stars and the #1 defensive player in the league the last 4 years, who can raise a team's floor by 7 - 10 wins?

That's what the Jazz are selling. Look at what the Bulls paid to get Vucevic a year ago. Look at what the Kings gave to trade for Sabonis. Rudy should garner a better haul than those deals.

How many of them have 4 yr/$170M left on their contracts? Big men usually start to decline around 30 and Rudy will be 30 this week.

The Pacers received Tyrese Halliburton, Buddy Hield, and Tristian Thompson.
The Magic received Wendell Carter, Otto Porter, and 2 1st round picks

Porter/Thompson were just filler and it doesn't look like Buddy is in the Pacers plans. So the Pacers really just made the deal for Halliburton and salary relief and the Magic received Wendell and 2 1st round picks.
