Between Keyonte George and Collin Sexton, the Jazz's backcourt scoring department is in good long-term shape. That makes Jordan Clarkson expendable, and he goes to the Thunder here for a package headlined by Giddey, a pass-first jack of all trades who could ease the playmaking burden on Utah's young guards.

Though Giddey is extension eligible and may not be part of OKC's long-term plans, Clarkson's veteran bench scoring may not be enough to get a deal done. The real draw for the Thunder is Hendricks, theoretically a floor-spacing defensive disruptor who'll be able to man either forward spot. Utah should highly value the guy it picked ninth in 2023, which is why OKC is tossing in a first-rounder, its own potential lottery ticket in Dieng and Williams, who'd add frontcourt versatility and defense.
