just look how he anchored the defense ... easily the best defender in the league

Yeah he has some very obvious limitations but he worked around them . Amazing work ethic.

I wouldn't touch Wall. There is very little evidence that he will be a star again once he is healthy. Achilles injuries are devastating.

they need more shooting. Wall is opposite of what they need

I don’t love it, just don’t how Utah makes the jump. Kevin Love would be great, just don’t know what they’d have to offer the Cavs.

A first rounder and cap relief is fine by me.

Utah should just make Donovan Mitchell the point guard and acquire shooters to surround him with. No star player wants to come play for Utah, so this is their best plan for next season. Unless they can somehow acquire another star via trade. But their assets are not that great for a trade.

Mitchell' s handle is not good enough for him to play point full time

Yeah, Love would make a ton of sense, but they have nothing that Cleveland would want. Their best hope is for Mitchell to develop into a legit top 15-20 player. But I am not sure he has that kind of ceiling.
