Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

[fishonjazz]

when you get rid of players with championship heart it doesnt help the team

That must be the goal. I knew AA was full of crap when he said we wouldn't tank again lol.

I get unloading guards, as the Jazz had too many, but like most of you this doesn't fully make sense..... unless there's a follow up trade.

Welp, the good news is Austin Ainge has set the bar very low for his next trade.

Even if there is, the value proposition for Charlotte is outrageously positive on balance. We should not be sending any kind of asset.

Had to be done

Bad trade, but it looks like @Tremendous Upside was right

this would actually make any sense. In which case, maybe Shams should do any proofing at all.

Edit: their citation is to Sham’s tweet which still says it’s the Jazz sending a pick. And it looks like Larsen confirmed this earlier.

Nepo baby not starting his tenure the best way possible... this is a horrendous trade if confirmed. I cannot believe there was noone else in the league valuing Sexton higher than this.... WOW!

 

[Noomskull]

Jazz brass must be in love with Walter Clayton Jr.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I actually like Nurkic here. Jazz needed a backup 5 so Flip doesn't have to do that. Nurkic is washed, but he's a smart player

The reality is... this trade won't make or break this team, but holy hell...

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Sexton had to be dealt. Just have to accept that Sexton doesn't have value, which the FO has been unable to do. Kudos to Austin for accepting reality and doing what had to be done

Sexton should have brought back a better yield. He is good and only 26.

We don't need any higher evaluation. This trade so bad we might as well holding onto Sexton since he's an expiring. Why the need to give up a second round pick for no reason???

Your takes have been awful on this imo. It's a move that had to be done

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

This is true but doesn't mean that you have to make a horrible trade.

Not what we got what is the true value.

Listen and learn, Sexton obviously only repaired his value in the sight of the Utah Jazz. Had they been able to get anything for him he would’ve been traded at the deadline I suspect. The jazz absolutely had to get him out of Utah so they can look like they are trying to win while they lose. Now the Jazz can focus on getting rid of Collins. This opens up room for WCJ.

Wish we could’ve got something for him but overall I’m happy he’s not here.

Don’t look at this as Jusuf Nurkic for Sexton and a 2nd 6 years from now. Look at it as a chance at a possible top pick for Sexton.

We really salary dumped an expiring salary for another expiring salary and we had to send out a second-round pick for the worse player? This is horrendous.

Wow, I hate this so ****ing much. If we’re prepping for a Kessler trade, then just use Walker’s spot as an open slot for auditioning Oscar and (other) G-League guys.

Jazz are developing their young pieces. Sexton deserves to be somewhere he can play.

Danny needs to spank Austin

Yeah, this feels like everybody but Austin was out of office for the weekend or something. Unbelievable.

Sexton probably was about to publicly request a trade because we’ve been ****ing with his money.
