An anonymous NBA general manager has found the New York Knicks' 'dream target' but he won't come easy.
It's deja vu all over again because the New York Knicks may be pursuing another Utah Jazz star this summer.
The Jazz sits in an awkward spot between competing for the Westen Conference Play-In Tournament bids and a complete post-Mitchell rebuild. Trading Markkanen, a breakout star in the wake of Mitchell's defection to Cleveland, would no doubt tip off a full-scale rebuild but it would also afford Utah some clarity on its franchise timeline.
“The Knicks would love to get Lauri in there with OG and Brunson, he is a better fit for them than Randle is because of the shooting,” the exec told Deveney. “If they could swap Randle for Markkanen, then cough up a lot of first-rounders, five or six, you’d have to think, you might get Danny Ainge on board. But they don’t want Randle in Utah, so it has to be picks.”
