Jaren Jackson Jr. traded to the Jazz

I will try to hold back judgement on this trade until more things shake out but as of now you give up 3 firsts plus 2 recent 1sts. Kessler doesn't fit with JJJ so we better not be losing him nothing. Then of course a healthy JJJ negatively impacts our draft pick significantly. This feels like more of a desperation type deal when one was not needed.
The first we gave up in 2027 are damn near irrelevant unless the Lakers have an out of nowhere flop of a season.

The Jazz can't roster 3 rookies in 2027.

i can't imagine jjj plays much health or not. they find some injuries for him.
 
I hope JJ Jr. has an insignificant injury that needs season ending surgery. Gotta keep the tank going. The Jazz gave up 3 picks to get the Phoenix pick and now they gave that away. I like the bold, quiet move as a chance to build something.
I heard from @bigmike that he has an extremely painful boo-boo that won’t require surgery but will require extensive return to play conditioning through September
