Another day, another nugget of information with the Donovan Mitchell trade situation. On the most recent Hoop Collective podcast, Brian Windhorst noted that the Utah Jazz may be trying to make the trade happen sooner than later.
From the podcast:
“It does sound as I talk to folks in the league that the Jazz are trying to apply the gas here. To try to juice the offer, especially juice the offer from the New York Knicks.”
This piece of information is interesting because contradicts a lot of the messaging we’ve heard from Jazz beat writers who have claimed the Jazz are willing to start the season with Mitchell, and beyond.
