Then he can do that next time the Lakers' G-League team comes to SLC.


Knecht, SRP and swap.most the Lakers will offer if anything now.


Jazz would rather just keep Kessler. This sucks for Kessler development but it doesn’t really change the long term plan for the Jazz at all. Tank this season and get a good player. Sign Kessler this offseason after using the cap space available.

More then likely now.
My Go Team
Magic, Jordan, Bird, Duncan, Shaq

My Fav 5 by position
J Williams, Kobe, Carter, Dirk, Shaq

White boy lineup
Luka, Reaves, Knecht, Laravia, Lauri

I am not in the trade Kessler camp. Haven’t really been in the trade Lauri camp either. Was a bit worried this season Lauri might be too good and win the Jazz games and ruin the draft pick. I have zero worries about that now. The Jazz defense is going to be terrible with Kessler out. I suspect the Jazz finish third worst this season now.

Exactly where I have them in my predictions, just not the way I was expecting.

If Lauri or Keynote have extended time out they could be the worst team again. But Brooklyn seems to really be pushing hard for that spot.

Sucks so bad for the Jazz. He started the season really really well.
