Looks like they wanted some flexibility with picks and the Jazz probably figure the 2031 pick is going to be a high pick.

Suns probably going to throw those picks into some trade

100%, I’m guessing either the Heat or some other team wanted picks a little sooner than 2031 even if they’re lower.

How can they swap 3 firsts for 1, 6 years from now, albeit potentially different on the final board? It seems like half a deal to me… And Utah is definitely not believing in anything it has, I hope Markkannen at least will find his way out of there

Pretty much 95% of the Finnish basketball fans want Markkanen out of Utah. It’s nightmare to watch Jazz games in this rebuild mode.
