The Utah Jazz are sending four players and three draft picks to Memphis in a trade for Jaren Jackson Jr.
The Utah Jazz weren’t the team expected to make waves at the trade deadline this year, but they surprised everyone on Tuesday, striking a massive deal with the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Jazz have agreed to send Taylor Hendricks, Walter Clayton Jr., Kyle Anderson, Georges Niang and three future first-round picks to the Grizzlies and will receive Jaren Jackson Jr., John Konchar, Jock Landale and Vince Williams Jr., league sources confirmed to the Deseret News.
Memphis will receive the most favorable 2027 pick of Utah/Minnesota/Cleveland, and the Lakers’ 2027 first-round pick, as well as Phoenix’s 2031 first-rounder.
Jackson is a two-time All-Star and was the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year.
