On June 22, as the draft approaches, all teams are now planning to operate. Previously, the US media predicted that many players will be traded in this draft. Not only may the rookies in the draft be traded, but some stars may also be involved. After all, the 2025th class is a big year for the draft, and many teams hope to get a suitable cornerstone from this draft to complete the reconstruction.

At this draft draw ceremony, many teams were not willing to win the ideal draw. For example, the Jazz and the Nets, they both intend to trade upwards and get the Tanhua lottery to choose their favorite players. The Nets have 3 first-round picks in this draft. The team really wants to win the talent of the top three picks, but now it seems that except for the 76ers, the other two teams have no intention of trading. The Jazz have already talked with the 76ers about the deal. They want to exchange their No. 5 draw and the Tanhua lottery, and for this reason, the Jazz are willing to eat George's junk contract.

This deal is really too tempting for the 76ers. They not only shook George's garbage contract, but also could still win the talent of the top five picks. There is no reason for the 76ers to refuse. The key is that the popular Bailey in Tanhua also refused to try out the 76ers. For this reason, the 76ers were very angry. They are likely not to choose Bailey. In this case, there is not much difference between the third pick and the fifth pick. It is more appropriate to look at the Jazz.

The Jazz are also planning to rebuild this rookie. They have put all their outstanding puzzles on the shelves and are preparing to rebuild and start a big sale mode. Among them, their inside lines have attracted the attention of many teams, such as their team's core Markanen. According to US media reports, the Heat, Pistons and 76ers are interested in him. Maybe he may also exchange clubs with George. Marca is one of the best space anti-aircraft guns in the active league.

Marca has both ball and no ball, which is a bit like King No. Because his playing style can match any system, many teams want to win him as the second or third leader of the team. Marca averaged 19 points, 6 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game this season, which was deliberately sacrificing data for the team to make a bad game. Even his intentional sacrifice of data cannot help the Jazz lose. In desperation, many times the Jazz can only ensure that they lose if they hit him.

The center Kessler of the team has also attracted the attention of many teams, among which the Lakers are the team that is most interested in him, but the problem is that the Jazz's asking for Kessler is too high. They want multiple first-round picks, which also puts the Lakers in a passive position. Perhaps the price of Kneckett + first-round picks cannot attract the Jazz, so the Lakers turned to discuss the Collins deal with the Jazz. According to US media CP, the Lakers intend to exchange Hachimura for Collins.

The two are about the same price, and it seems that they can be exchanged, but such a deal is meaningless to the Jazz. They want to rebuild and make a bad move. What do you do to give them a winning puzzle? What people want more is a draft pick. Collins averaged 19 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game this season. He is the player needed by the Lakers. He is good at eating cakes and has excellent space ability. He can both damage the basket and shoot three-pointers.

Collins has one year left for contract, and it is a good choice for the Lakers to win him. Even if he fails to meet the Lakers' expectations in the end, the Lakers can give up him. Collins can play 4-5 and can be competent for five small centers. His arrival allows the Lakers to take on the double towers. He is flexible enough and can also be used to replace defenses unlimitedly. I think the Lakers should not sacrifice too much, and they should be able to get it with Kneckett + a balance contract.

In addition to the three mentioned above, they also have an excellent puzzle, which is Sexton. This person who had played star potential in the Cavaliers, but was sent to the Jazz due to a serious injury. Now he has proved himself again in the Jazz. Sexton averages 18.4 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game this season, with a three-point shooting percentage of 40.2%. According to the Jazz, the Mavericks are Sexton's potential next home.

The Mavericks lack the most now is a qualified point guard, and they still have their own preferences for choosing players. They prefer the kind of point guard with excellent defensive skills. Although Sexton is not a top defensive backcourt, his defensive attitude is excellent, similar to Westbrook's who can rely on his defensive attitude to ignite his teammates. In addition, Sexton also has a good star temperament, and he dares to fight at critical moments.

To be honest, it was because the Jazz restricted him, otherwise he might have become a star in other teams. Perhaps considering these, the Mavericks are interested in him. He is very similar to Irving, with the ability to attack and has a leadership temperament on the defensive end. When Irving is unable to return next season, it is obviously a good choice to use him to replace Irving. Having said that, what do you want to say about the Jazz? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
