4 Knicks Players Jazz Could Target in a Donovan Mitchell Trade
There’s been a lot of chatter on how many first-round draft picks the New York Knicks would need to part with in a Donovon Mitchell exchange with the Utah Jazz, but what players could be involved in such a move?
Jazz executive Danny Ainge will want to acquire assets that have room to develop as players, along with contracts that are under team control for multiple years.
Let’s take a look at what Knicks players could be on their way to Salt Lake City in a potential trade, and others that don’t fit the bill.
RJ Barrett | Small Forward
Cam Reddish | Small Forward
Obi Toppin | Power Forward
Quentin Grimes | Shooting Guard
The former Kansas Jayhawk is an above-average defender, and at 6-foot 5 with a 6-foot-8 wingspan, he has the ability to guard multiple positions. He’s in just the second year of his rookie contract, and he's another player that the Jazz could develop on their watch.
Quentin Grimes and Obi Toppin are the top two players that Ainge would most likely target in a potential Mitchell trade.
Jazz fans are split on retooling or rebuilding, but if a deal gets done, the Knicks have the players and draft picks to make it happen.
