On a personal level, good luck to all three players dealt to Utah in the Donovan Mitchell trade — (Salt Lake City is pretty sweet) — but especially to Collin Sexton, an infinitely likeable kid who went hard every night. pic.twitter.com/6zfhxOJFDh – 5:42 PM

Donovan Mitchell — acquired from UTA for Collin Sexton, Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Agbaji, 3 first rounders, 2 pick swaps — has been an All-Star in each of the last 3 yrs, top 15 scorer in last 4 — career avg. 23.9ppg, playoff avg. 28.3ppg, Dunk champ — and is still 25 years old. pic.twitter.com/G0OjTaaRSs – 5:26 PM

CLEVELAND/UTAH TRADE THREAD:
• CLE acquired Mitchell ($30.9M)
• UTA acquired Sexton ($16.7M), Markkanen ($16.5M), Agbaji ($3.9M) + ’25, ’27, ’29 unprotected 1sts + ’26, ’28 pick swaps
If Mitchell opts out, he’d be off the team for the last 4 draft picks (’26, ’27, ’28, ’29). – 5:06 PM

If Collin Sexton is fully recovered from last season’s knee injury—surely Jazz believe it’s the case, otherwise they wouldn’t have invested 72M over four years; or was that the price 2 consummate the deal?) is Mitchell that much better?! Season b4 injury, Sexton averaged 23. – 2:51 PM

Donovan Mitchell is better than an uninjured Collin Sexton. I guess you just have to decide if he’s Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Ogbaji, three unprotected first-rounders, two pick swaps and $63 million more in salary better than an uninjured Collin Sexton. – 5:33 PM

There’s a very reasonable argument to be made that Sexton, Markkanen, Agbaji plus three unprotected firsts (and two swaps) is superior to the rumored Grimes/Toppin/Quickley/McBride packages.
Sexton, 23, is by far the best player from the group. Agbaji was the 14th pick in June. – 4:09 PM

His name was floated around even before the the NBA Draft and the Rudy Gobert trade.

More on this storyline
The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired NBA All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell in a trade with the Utah Jazz, Cavaliers President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman announced today from Cleveland Clinic Courts. In exchange, Cleveland has sent guard Collin Sexton (via sign and trade), forward Lauri Markkanen, guard Ochai Agbaji and three future unprotected first round draft picks (2025, 2027, 2029) to Utah, while also agreeing to swap picks in 2026 and 2028. -via NBA.com / September 3, 2022
According to Adrian Wojnarowski from ESPN, the Cleveland Cavaliers trasded Lauri Markkanen, Ochair Agbaji, Collin Sexton, three unprotected first-round picks, and two pick swaps to Utah Jazz for Donovan Mitchell. “Obviously, it’s a great addition to the team,” Cedi Osman shared his reaction to the trade with BasketNews. “I believe that everybody [in the organization] is excited.” Does he see the Cavaliers being contenders in Eastern Conference in the upcoming season? “Definitely,” Osman answered with confidence. -via BasketNews / September 3, 2022
Chris Fedor: And on top of that, you know, both teams have completed multiple trades since Koby came in charge and since Justin Zanuck was making decisions for the Jazz, so I think that helped with negotiations and keeping everybody in the loop and trying to keep these conversations as private as possible, and not throwing lottery marketing’s name out in the media and Collin Sexton’s name and all that kind of stuff. So, you know, as the offseason progress, about two weeks ago, the Cavs finally had a feeling of, hey, we might be in this thing. We might have the pieces that Utah actually wants. -via Apple Podcasts / September 3, 2022
