Jazz may have indicated plans with Lauri Markkanen vs. Kings
Jazz may not be done making moves
Rumors are swirling that the Utah Jazz may be looking to trade Lauri Markkanen. According to a report from The Athletic, the Jazz have been fielding calls from other teams about Markkanen's availability. The Jazz are said to be listening to offers, but they are not actively shopping Markkanen.
Markkanen has been a key part of the Jazz's success this season. He is averaging 24.5 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. He has also been a good shooter, making 44.5% of his shots from the field and 38.3% of his shots from three-point range.
If the Jazz were to trade Markkanen, it would be a significant move. He is one of their best players, and he is still just 25 years old. However, the Jazz may be looking to shake things up after a disappointing season. They finished with a 29-53 record, which was the worst record in the Western Conference.
Possible destinations for Markkanen
If the Jazz do trade Markkanen, there are a few teams that could be interested in acquiring him. The New York Knicks have been rumored to be interested in Markkanen, and they could use a player of his caliber. The Los Angeles Lakers could also be a possible destination for Markkanen. They are looking to add another star player to pair with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
Ultimately, it is up to the Jazz to decide whether or not they want to trade Markkanen. He is a valuable player, but they may be looking to make a change. If they do trade him, it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
