With all physicals complete, the Utah Jazz announced that they have acquired Collin Sexton, Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Agbaji and multiple first round picks from the Cleveland Cavaliers for Donovan Mitchell. That return, combined with the haul Utah received from the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Rudy Gobert trade, has the Jazz thinking big.

"It was clear that in order to optimize our opportunity to create a team that could truly contend and establish sustained success, we needed to transition our roster,” said Jazz CEO of Basketball Danny Ainge. “In trading Rudy and now Donovan, it was a rare opportunity to maximize our ability to get quality talent and picks to best position us moving forward. We have a plan in place to help us assemble the championship team our fans deserve. It will take time to craft our roster. We all understand the work ahead and are committed to our vision."

Utah GM Justin Zanik echoed Ainge's comments, while talking about what Sexton, Markkanen and Agbaji bring to the roster.

“Ochai, Lauri and Collin are exciting young players, and we’re thrilled to add them to our roster,” said Zanik. “We believe that they fit the Jazz culture and hard-nosed, competitive brand of basketball we’ve built here in Utah. They give us versatility and athleticism on both ends of the floor as we grow toward the future. We look forward to our fans getting to know them.”
