Western Conference team reportedly being ‘aggressor’ in Lauri Markkanen trade talks |
Sportsnaut
The Utah Jazz has privately told teams that they don’t want to trade Lauri Markkanen. But they are actively engaged in conversations in case front office head Danny Ainge receives a huge offer for the All-Star big man.
As this all plays out, it is looking more and more like the Jazz will move their prized trade chip. Markkanen is seemingly the best player remaining on the trade block as the summer continues.
We’ve read reports of the Sacramento Kings, Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors all being in on the 27-year-old big man. It is going to take a whole heck of a lot to pry Markkanen away from the Jazz. While he is worth a nice haul, working with Ainge has proven to be hard for other front office heads in the past.
We now have a big update on where things stand. According to Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report, Golden State is being the “aggressors” in talks with Utah about the 7-foot big.
