The rumors revolving around the Utah Jazz continue to fly in as we inch through this summer’s NBA offseason, and it’s safe to say that the chatter around a Lauri Markkanen trade still remains consistent throughout the league.
It’s no secret that the Jazz have been receiving some immense interest in their franchise cornerstone over the course of this offseason as many teams have inquired about the one-time All-Star’s availability.
While Utah has remained consistent in its stance of not wanting to part ways with Markkanen, it hasn’t stopped other GMs from trying their hand to land him, and Danny Ainge will continue listening to whatever comes his way.
Teams like the Golden State Warriors have reportedly been aggressive in their pursuit to secure Markkanen, but as we sit over two weeks from the start of NBA free agency, no forward progress has been made on that front.
However, thanks to a recent development from The Athletic’s Shams Charania, we have an idea of what the Jazz would be looking for in a deal with the Warriors– and it’s far from a low asking price.
