3 Potential Utah Jazz Trade Targets Nobody Is Talking About

Someone who could, and should be squarely on the Jazz's trade radar is Mavericks two-way wing Naji Marshall, who currently sits on a $9 million expiring deal, and could be a name new president Masai Ujiri sees value in pivoting off of now, if there were no plans to retain him under this new regime.

He fits the bill of what the Jazz need: more defenders. Marshall has been a consistent, versatile piece on that end of the floor for the past several years, and has just started to expand his offensive game after a career year of averaging over 15 points a night in Dallas.

He could be the most expensive piece to acquire on this list after the year he just had, but he'd be worth a strong investment from the Jazz to help round this roster out on both ends of the floor, so long as they had plans to keep him beyond the last year of his deal.

Tristan Da Silva | F, Orlando Magic

Tristan Da Silva and the Magic are fresh off a humbling first-round loss where they gave up a 3-1 lead to the Detroit Pistons, and now enter an offseason where organizational change has already ensued in the form of finding a new head coach.

Maybe that turnover translates to a few roster pieces as well. And if it does, Da Silva could make some sense for the Jazz to keep an eye on. He's a lengthy 6-foot-8 wing who's shown positive development across his first two years in the league, even if he was a little phased out of the Magic's playoff rotation.

With two years left on his rookie deal, he could be a cheap, worthwhile pickup for the Jazz, in the event the Magic were looking to turn in another direction.

Devin Carter | G, Sacramento Kings

Devin Carter's stock since entering the league as a lottery selection two years ago has seen a pretty steep drop-off.

Carter's played in just 74 games since being selected 13th overall by the Kings in 2024, has shot a career 27.4% from three, and could very well be on his way out of Sacramento this offseason if their front office lands the right package.

For the Jazz, he might not be a rotational fit right away, as there are some kinks to work out in his development. But he does fit the perimeter defensive upside that Utah desperately needs, and they could take a flier on him with a low-risk package that could eventually turn into someone who's a positive two-way presence.
