Conclusions about trading Jordan Clarkson
While Jordan Clarkson becomes eligible for trade on January 4th, the next 2.5 weeks will be a waiting game - he is currently out with a minor injury and should be back before that deadline for a few games.
The team has won 3 of their last 4 and are sharing the ball much more without Clarkson's countless drives in traffic. When he does return, there's no guarantee he will return to the starting lineup long-term.
If the Utah Jazz get an opportunity to get any of these 3 players, or someone else that is younger and will improve the team's outlook, it is well worth exploring a Jordan Clarkson trade, even if we give up some draft assets in the process.
