Woj: Don to the Cavs for Markkanen, Agbaji, Sexton, three unprotected 1sts, two swaps, and a partridge in a pear tree.

The only person that will really eat into any Lauri-time is Bogey, and even then, there are plenty of minutes to go around.

Yeah, Bogey would be the main one, and it does seem most likely he gets moved before the season.

Lauri got 30min per game last year and had a usage of 19.2%. So it's not like he's never had a chance to play. His minutes could go up a little, but I'm not sure how his usage goes up if he remains a catch and shoot guy.

Assuming Clarkson and Bogey are dealt, Utah's only really proven scorers right now is Sex and Conley (assuming he's not dealt). He'll have more opportunities as a result I think.

I don’t think there has ever been this much spin and trying to justify to the media after a single trade especially a whole 8 days later.

They be trading their Coaches for Couches. lay down relax breath deep , shut your eyes and picture Barrett running the floor but with a Don Mitchell head, you can now find inner peace. at least until you open your eyes and get off the couch.
 
I’ve watched Agbaji’s entire career at KU.

I think Agbaji will be what he’s always been — steady. He’ll shoot about 40% from three, score about 12-15 points per game, and play decent defense. He’s a decent straight line driver, but he definitely doesn’t have the wiggle or handle of someone like Mitchell to create much for himself at the NBA level.

I don’t think he has star potential, but I think he has “2 guard version of Mykal Bridges” potential.

Those saying he has a “passivity” to his game have him nailed, and I don’t necessarily mean that as a bad thing. He’s always kind of let the game come to him rather than exert himself on the game, if that makes sense.

I am excited to see him in a Jazz uniform this year, but I am setting my expectations at solid bench rotation player to solid starter, not star.
