Donovan Mitchell is headed east…only not quite all the way to the coast. The Cavaliers acquired the three-time All-Star from the Jazz on Thursday, swooping in after Utah’s extended dalliance with the Knicks. Utah will receive three unprotected first-round picks, two pick swaps, Lauri Markkanen, Collin Sexton and Ochair Agbaji in the deal. Sexton, who was a restricted free agent, will sign a four-year, $72 million deal as part of the trade. Mitchell, who turns 26 on Sept. 7, averaged 25.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game last season. Let’s grade the move for both sides.
