Where will Trey Burke End Up

This post is just conjuncture like all post pertaining to potential trades. We have don't know what DL is asking for or what other teams are willing to trade.

I remember hearing from multiple different sources there is no trade market for Trey Burke.

The hell you say! There are 29 other teams out there lining up for an undersized (and by undersized I mean like undersized for badminton), slow, below average shooter, who doesn't pass, doesn't move the ball well, doesn't have a defensive presence, sits on the sidelines playing weird games with his tongue, kind of player. We just should have played him more so that other teams really really really knew who he was.

I heard that DL was offered a lottery pick for him, but that he and Quin thought Trey was too important in his role as 3rd string PG to let go.

I think Trey would go into a deep depression if he read this.
 
He is an NBA backup pg on a cheap contract. He is a very good catch and shoot 3 point shooter. He is cheap. We will be able to trade him for salary relief. He won't be someone's first choice and that is why he hadn't been moved.

He's gotten better and can make improvements still. Not saying we will regret not keeping him but he will be in the league for 10 years. That is why I'm saying the hate has gone too far.
 
just need to show other GM's youtube comments like this than we'll get great value for him!

It's sad that he didn't work out. I was happy when we drafted him. I think if his defense wasn't so awful he could be a decent rotational player. Hope he can find a good spot somewhere else
Gotta respect his attitude though, never really complained as his minutes went down

I don't think he'll last ten years. One thing I do agree with is that he'll be cheap. It'll be interesting to see how much he gets on his next contract.
 
Feel free to post said sources.

What do you think his trade value is? When Utah traded for Mack and Trey suddenly dropped to 3rd string, don't you think it's reasonable to believe that Utah tried to move him, and didn't because his value was such that they'd rather wait until the off-season and hope someone develops a need they didn't have at the deadline? I also think it's reasonable to believe if Utah could have gotten a late first in the draft, they would have jumped on it.

I'm betting when he's traded, Utah will get a 2nd round pick for him. That's where I see his value.

Not sure. Best case is probably a really late 1st depending on how free agency breaks. Jazz didn't do themselves any favors not playing Trey.

Just because a player isn't traded doesn't mean they lack value. Besides if I'm a GM interested in Burke I'm low balling Utah. DL has no leverage. The entire hoops world know his time in Utah is done.
 
It's been reported that they have been trying to trade Trey Burke since the 2015 draft. He has 0 value.
 
I don't know where he'll end up but Mr. Burke has been the consummate professional while on the Jazz. Even after getting demoted, he's been a professional. I hope he goes to a team where he'll be able to realize his potential.
