Episode Details

The Utah Jazz pulled off a blockbuster trade deadline move, acquiring two-time All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. from Memphis in exchange for rookie guard Walter Clayton Jr. and Taylor Hendricks — a shocking twist since rookies rarely get traded. Clayton, who averaged nearly seven points and over three assists in just 45 games, called the move surprising but not hurtful, praising the Jazz organization while admitting he liked Memphis’ food better.
