1. New York Knicks
New York Knicks get Donovan Mitchell
Utah Jazz get Evan Fournier, Cam Reddish, Obi Toppin, Quentin Grimes, 2023 first-round pick (via DAL), 2023 first-round pick, 2025 first-round pick, 2027 first-round pick
It’s no surprise to see the New York Knicks at the top of this list. They have a crop of young prospects and a multitude of first-round picks that the Utah Jazz could choose from. They’ve also been considered the favorites to land Mitchell from the start of this madness.
The Jazz is reportedly high on Quentin Grimes and would likely be open to the potential that both Cam Reddish and Obi Toppin have. The Knicks also have eight tradable first-round picks, though the hope is that they would only have to part ways with three of four.
The Knicks should be considered the favorites, even without including RJ Barrett who may not be someone the Jazz wants to pay. Either way, at this point, it would be surprising if Mitchell didn’t land in New York. Unless something drastically changes.
