NBA Trades: 3 under-the-radar destinations for Donovan Mitchell
NBA Trades #1: Donovan Mitchell to Memphis Grizzlies
After the Memphis Grizzlies lost in the 2nd round to the Golden State Warriors, they could look to add another star to compete with the top teams in the Western Conference. As superstar Ja Morant is due for another phenomenal season, he will need help if the Grizzlies are looking to make a run at the NBA finals.
Although trading for Mitchell may not be easy, the Grizzlies may have some of the best young talents in the NBA. Adding Mitchell would instantly make the Grizzlies one of the best teams in the NBA. The Utah Jazz may ask for sharpshooters Desmond Bane and Zaire Williams, as well as center Steven Adams, and rookie Jake LaRavia. In addition, the Grizzlies may have to trade away numerous draft picks to meet the wants of the Utah Jazz.
In return, the Utah Jazz would be asked to include center Udoka Azubuike. This trade package makes perfect sense for both teams. With several superstars in the Western Conference returning to full health, the Grizzlies will have to come back stronger to have a chance at one of the top seeds. Currently, Mitchell is one of the best players on the trade block. With this trade package, the Grizzlies would still be able to hold onto their core players and add one of the top shooting guards in the league.
