Would you want your team to get Lauri Markkanen? (alien.top)

I feel like he is too good to be playing for the Jazz, he has now finally shown everyone what hes about and what hes capable of. What team would make the most sense for him and why

He’ll be a free agent in 2025 and having never gotten a max contract he’s definitely going to be big game hunting. I doubt Utah would be ready to contend by then simply because Markkanen makes them too good to truly tank but not good enough for a playoff spot. It makes way more sense for them to trade him before his last year of his current deal starts.

if they’re still tanking by 2025 something’s gone wrong. Ainge cant just kick the can down the road forever
