Sources: Jazz agree to deal Dante Exum and picks to Cavaliers for Jordan Clarkson

The Utah Jazz have agreed to trade guard Dante Exum and two second-round picks to the Cleveland Cavaliers for guard Jordan Clarkson, league sources tell ESPN.

The Jazz are hoping that Clarkson can deliver a boost to its bench scoring.

Exum, the No. 5 overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, has struggled to stay healthy in his career, but has shown glimpses of his elevated draft stock.

The Jazz will send Cleveland a 2022 (via San Antonio) and 2023 (via Golden State) second-round picks, sources said. This was the NBA's first trade since the Houston-Oklahoma City deal centered on Russell Westbrook and Chris Paul on July 11.
