Jazz send: John Collins
Jazz receive Mo Wagner, Gabe Vincent, 2 2nd round picks from Lakers

Lakers send: Gabe Vincent, 2 2nd round picks
Lakers receive: Cole Anthony

Magic send: Cole Anthony, Mo Wagner
Magic receive: John Collins

Why for Jazz: Tank harder, clear around $15m in cap space next summer, get some seconds
Why for Lakers: Upgrade a non-NBA player to an NBA caliber player without giving up too much
Why for Magic: Add big man who shoots pretty well and fits reasonably next to Isaac and Paolo. Assumption will be that Utah will decline Wagner's team option next year and he can sign with the Magic again next summer.

Lakers probably pass. Not sure they are needed in the deal either.

Yeah, that's reasonable.

I'm as down on Vincent as possible and still a fan of Cole but don't see the difference being worth two second rounders, unless it's from a team that has a boatload of them.

If I'm Utah, I keep Cole and let him get the minutes that get left open after a Sexton/Clarkson move to try to build some value back for him in a summer move.

I like it as-is. I'd rather have the 2nds than Anthony, he's not rehabbing any value, he is what he is, which is a fine bench scorer that we absolutely don't need because we are set with that archetype.

magic not this desperate .easy pass ..paolo will be back soon ..do not see panic move at all...after move like this no money to bring mo back...fine with lineup as is if this is best thing out there
