With the 2019 NBA Trade Deadline approaching, rumors surrounding the Utah Jazz and Otto Porter Jr. are heating up. Here are some pros and cons of the Jazz making a deal for Porter.

As the 2019 NBA Trade Deadline creeps closer, the Utah Jazz might be preparing to make a move before the clock runs out to swap players for the remainder of the regular season.

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, one player that the Jazz might be focusing more on is current Washington Wizards wing Otto Porter Jr.

Charania reported less than a week ago that the Wizards might look to move some pieces prior to the deadline, and Porter might be one of the players they will aim to send away to an interested team. He also mentioned the Jazz as an interested suitor.

Porter could be an interesting piece for Utah to target and an intriguing player to add to the mix in Salt Lake City for the remainder of the season and beyond.

With the deadline inching closer and the rumors surrounding Otto Porter Jr., the Jazz and the rest of the NBA, let’s take a look at some pros and cons of Porter being traded to Utah.
