Proposed Walker Kessler-Jazz trade helps everyone involved (except themselves)
San Antonio Spurs v Utah Jazz | Alex Goodlett/GettyImagesYeah, we know. This act is getting a bit tiring because the Utah Jazz are not trading Walker Kessler. Last we heard anything on the subject, it seems pretty much confirmed that the plan is to keep him. However, that hasn't stopped trades from being floated. Especially ones where it serves Jazz absolutely no benefit.
Such is the case with Bleacher Report's Eric Pincus's latest proposed trade between the Jazz, Boston Celtics, and Miami Heat. He proposed the following trade between the three teams.
Celtics receive: Kessler, $27.7 million
Heat receive: Anfernee Simons, draft rights to John Tonje, $3.9 million Jaime Jaquez Jr. TPE
