Sweet vindication for NBA reporter and internet meme Brian Windhorst. He was right.
The Jazz are indeed up to something. They traded Rudy Gobert and now, it appears, they’re willing to trade Donovan Mitchell. Utah is reportedly now willing to listen to trade offers for their best player, a New York native who loves the Mets and played most of his high school ball in Connecticut.
Mitchell has been connected to the Knicks for a while. Now he’s apparently available. And team president Leon Rose is expected to push for a blockbuster deal.
