Utah Jazz trade four players in massive pre-deadline deal

Trade deadline came a day early for the Utah Jazz.

As part of a massive three-team deal on Wednesday night — less than an hour before tipoff against the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves — the team sent out Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker to the Wolves, and Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt to the Los Angeles Lakers, according to multiple media reports.

In exchange, the Jazz are getting back former MVP and current Sixth Man of the Year frontrunner Russell Westbrook, forward Juan Toscano-Anderson, center Damian Jones, and a top-four-protected 2027 first-round pick from the Lakers.

The Jazz will also send out three future second-round picks to Minnesota — the worse of the Wizards/Grizzlies in 2024, and their own picks in ’25 and ’26.

This story will be updated.
