With a new head of basketball decision making he will undoubtedly want to annex at least one of the current young players to make room for draft picks of his choosing. I think the Jazz will make a draft night trade either centered around one of these players, or they will be used as a sweetener in a larger deal
 
I think it'll be Keyonte or Cody. If it's Cody, I feel it'll be too early to give up on him. I still think he'll improve immensely another year or two. Seeing his brother play in the nba finals will motivate more or his brother will. But that's just me.
 
The only guy here that would make any sense to trade would be Sensabaugh as the Jazz seem to not like him very much, but another team may think he's cheap shooting.

Every other player is a guy the Jazz would value more than other teams.
 
If I had to bet on who it’d be, I’d say Key.

- Another team might actually trade something for him
- Our coaching staff/may not be as high on him as they used to
- He could collide with whoever we draft at 5

Most likely destinations:

Key -> ATL
Key-> ORL
Brice -> ORL
Kessler -> LAL
 
I would lol if we trade Cody for any kind of value. I put none. I’m good continuing the experiment with all of them. Some cuz I like them some cuz they help the tank.
 
I think the Jazz would keep the rookie-contract players at least until the deadline, if not through the season. They're still finding out what they have. The verdict on Cody probably won't come in until at least a month or two into his 3rd season. Hendricks needs another full season and another summer to come back.

If the Jazz think they're headed to an extension standoff a year from now with Keyonte, then maybe Keyonte moves by next summer. Keyonte is a guy whom other teams may value more than the Jazz. He's something like Reggie Jackson on the Thunder. But let's see how he does this year.

Unless some other team really has fallen in love with what Cody could become, I really don't see them trading him. Same with Taylor, and I doubt Walker is available unless someone really overpays. I'm inclined to say "None", but I wouldn't be surprised if Brice ends up in a package.
