At this stage of the offseason, the Utah Jazz don't exactly have that many boxes to check off. Besides the Kevin Love situation, it's likely that most of their current roster right now will be there on opening night. However, if the opportunity presented itself, the Jazz could acquire more draft assets, and one way they could do so is by acquiring excess salary to facilitate the move.
A notable example of a trade like this was Utah's acquisition of Russell Westbrook (the first time) in 2023. They traded Mike Conley, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Malik Beasley in a blockbuster deal to get Westbrook, but it was all to get that coveted Lakers 2027 top-four protected lottery pick.
