The Atlanta Hawks desperately need a center, and Jusuf Nurkic is a big man who could be available for a relatively low price this season. If the Hawks decide not to trade Kristaps Porzingis for a star, Nurkic is the best option for both teams (and the player).
The Utah Jazz have been quite blatant in their attempts to tank since trading away Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert. Last season, the team posted a lowly 21% win percentage. But just when you think they’ve hit rock bottom, they found a way to outdo themselves – they posted a 2-21 (10%) record after March 1st in a sprint to the bottom of the league.
