3. John Collins
The Jazz have lacked athleticism and an offensive threat at the power-forward spot for a number of years now, and with the threat that Donovan Mitchell and Jordan Clarkson possess, bringing in John Collins to be another threat would be the perfect fit for this Jazz squad. His athleticism as well as high-upside potential would be perfect to grow alongside Mitchell, and even if he already has that in Trae Young, Atlanta are looking to re-tool for a long playoff run, and dealing Collins would alleviate any cap stress, as well as get them some future assets back that they lost in the Dejonte Murray deal.
It’s hard to say whether Atlanta would want to deal one of their homegrown young players, but if there’s any chance at all, Collins is the type of player that would help Utah now, as well as in the future when looking to build this team into a genuine contender. Whether it’s Collins or another athletic forward, giving the Jazz backcourt a lob threat and another option when they drive to the hoop will help transform this offensive unit, and if it is Collins and Utah are able to unlock him, they’ll have a fantastic pairing with plenty of upside and room to grow.
