It smells like a stinking! No team in the trading market is interested in the Jazz backcourt general?

Basketball

According to reports from Andy Larsen, a reporter from Salt Lake Tribune, the Utah Jazz wanted to send backcourt player Jordan Clarkson away through a trade, but few teams in the trading market are interested in Clarkson at present.

In the NBA regular season this season, Clarkson made a total of 37 appearances in 82 games, averaging 26 minutes of playing time, averaging 16.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 2.3 turnovers and 1.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 40.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 36.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 79.7%. Clarkson's performance this season is very average, his offensive efficiency is quite poor, he seems to have good scoring ability, but the support he actually brings to the team on the offensive end is very limited, and it can even be said that his on the court is completely causing the team to have greater trouble on the offensive end. Not only that, Clarkson's defensive ability is seriously insufficient, and it is difficult for him to take on more responsibilities on the defensive end. Clarkson's performance on both sides of the offense and defense is very disappointing, and even by the standards of a sixth man, he is not very qualified. In this case, it is reasonable that his transaction value is not ideal.

In a previous deal, the Jazz posted a second round pick before sending Collin Sexton to the Charlotte Hornets, and only exchanged the Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic, who performed poorly last season. Sexton's performance and current state are obviously much better than Clarkson. It is logical that he can also attract the attention and interest of some teams in the trading market. However, even Sexton needs to post a second round pick in reverse to send it away, so Clarkson's situation is obviously even more unoptimistic.

I have to say that Jazz's series of operations really give people the feeling that they are smart but are mistaken by intelligence. The Jazz wanted to increase the trading value of players, and they did not take action when the trading value of players was at a high point. For example, Lauri Markkanen, whose trading value last summer was extremely high. Sending him away to get a large number of draft picks as bargaining chips is also very beneficial to the team's long-term construction. As a result, the Jazz not only did not send him away, but instead provided him with a large contract renewal. Markkanen's performance last season showed a significant decline, and his trading value was greatly reduced. The same is true for Sexton, and Clarkson's situation is almost the same. Next season is Clarkson's contract year, and his salary next season is $14.29 million. It seems that the Jazz are going to pay the draft pick again in order to send Clarkson away?
