Kawhi Leonard
Devin Booker
Damian Lillard
If we're going unrealistic, Devin Booker would be my pick for that group. No real injury history, is under contract for a while, has good positional size, and is an excellent shooter. Seems like a great fit for any team.
I love Jaylen, but his complaints in Boston about the city's culture seem to be something that might preclude Utah from being a long-term destination for him. Kawhi is made of glass and is not the person to build a young team around. AD could be fun next to Lauri and Walker. We've gone twelve rounds on Damian as a board, but I think overall, the consensus is he's too old / has too large of a contract to give up a ton of assets for.
What about these guys? Who would you go after from this group?
Tyrese Haliburton
Jaren Jackson Jr
Paul George
Brandon Ingram
Jrue Holiday
If options would be those guys i would take Holiday,and George.
Jrue is allstar PG and can run offense, create himself and his teammates
he would be also good mentor for THT, Dunn,Sexton and Jazz rookie PG ( if Jazz drafts one ).
Dunn and Lauri played same time into Bulls with Jrue's older brother Justin so it would be great to see
how Lauri and Dunn clicks with Jrue but i doubt Bucks would trade him Jrue is their guy and that's how it should be,.
Paul George joined the club who's impressed on Lauri's improvement and said in his podcast Lauri should win MIP and it happened.
As a age 32 George wouldn't be too old and he would bring a lot experience and veteran leadership into young Jazz team.
George would be good mentor for Lauri he's played his whole career SF postion and he can give a lot good advices for Lauri
so George's joining to Jazz would put Lauri to PF but it doesnt matter because Lauri is played PF in NBA
and he is PF in Finnish national team Paul George could also take responsibility on Jazz scoring
especially nights when Lauri has off night or opposite team is guarding him tightly.
And of course George's veteran leaderhip would be very valuable to young Jazz team
But is George ready to leave LA's metropol and change it smaller market team that's the question.
Then few words of rest players
Jaren Jackson would awesome too
and he would be another shot blocking machine with Kessler but i don't see him leaving Memphis.
Tyrese Haliburton should be Jazz main trade target right now and as soon as draft night if possible.
Haliburton played allstar game this year and he's showing serious improvement and he will be one
candidate to MIP award next year but does Pacers have any interest to trade him that's the question.
Brandon Ingram should be good add too but in SG position and Clarkson's replacement.
Ingram would be good mentor for Agbaji and Sexton also his experience of NBA game is welcome need to young Jazz team.
Young team who's learning winning and being responsible pros do not never have too much veteran leadership and experience.
