5 Trades the Utah Jazz could do at the trade deadline
The Utah Jazz are in a rebuild year. They currently have the 2nd worst record in the league and have lost 8 in a row. The Jazz’s priority has seemed to be developing the young guys and seek first round picks for the future. By trading veteran candidates, specifically John Collins, Collin Sexton, or Jordan Clarkson, Utah could obtain more coveted draft picks.
Trade Number 1
The Jazz get more draft picks and still get veterans to help mentor the young guys. The Heat get younger, better players to help prepare their future for beyond Jimmy Butler.
Trade Number 2

Similar to trade 1, Utah gets picks, Pistons get younger and better players to continue their ascent.
Trade Number 3

In this 3 team trade, the Jazz absorb and likely waive the contract of P.J. Tucker, take a chance on the teenage Cam Christie, and get 4 second picks. The Clippers get a veteran marksman, who may bounce back from his rough year in a new scenery. The Hawks get the best player in the trade, Collin Sexton, who would be a great 6th man option for a team that is lacking creation beyond Trae Young.
Trade Number 4

The Jazz bring on a bad contract in Nurkic and lose fan favorite Clarkson, but get another pick to add to their portfolio.
Trade Number 5

In this hypothetical trade, the Jazz land a 2nd round pick and salary filler, the Bulls get effective veteran pieces and a 1st round pick. The Rockets make a move for an all-star calibur player and get a 6th man scorer player to bolster their title run chances.

The Jazz maybe won’t trade any players this deadline, they already have the 2nd best odds to get Cooper Flagg in the summer. Trading some veteran guys now increases the chances of the Jazz tanking for Flagg and gets them even more draft capital to build for the future.
What will Utah do at the deadline, comment below!

Multiple earthquakes detected near Kanosh
KANOSH, Utah — The United States Geological Survey recorded multiple earthquakes near Kanosh Sunday morning, each of them having an average magnitude of 3.0.
The first earthquake, magnitude 3.0, was detected just after 12:30 a.m., with the epicenter located half a mile south of Kanarraville.
The second quake, magnitude 3.2, was detected around 5:45 a.m., with the epicenter nearly five miles south-southwest of Kanosh. This was followed by two more quakes in the same area, a magnitude 2.5 quake coming in around 6:35 a.m., followed by a third around 7:45 a.m, which measured at magnitude 3.3.
This has since been followed by another quake, measuring at magnitude 3.7, being detected around 8:45 a.m. The geographic location in the USGS report places the epicenter approximately over two miles south of the Dry Wash Trail, about six miles south-southwest of Kanosh.
FOX 13 News previously spoke with researchers at University of Utah, who said that earthquake swarms are relatively common. A study published in 2023 posits that swarms may be triggered by geothermal activity. The findings came after a series of seismic swarms were detected in central Utah, within the vicinity of three geothermal power plants.
The study also says that the swarms fall into a different category than aftershocks that typically follow large quakes, such as the magnitude 5.7 earthquake that hit the Wasatch Fault back in 2020.
