Every off-season, some elite talent is always up for grabs. However, this time around, the stakes are much higher. Kevin Durant is by far the biggest name on the list. However, there have been steamy talks around Utah Jazz’s Donovan Mitchell. After the Miami Heat made the first move, Michael Jordan reportedly wants to join the race for Spida. However, Utah Jazz fans were not completely on board with the idea.

After another horrid exit in the NBA playoffs, the Jazz’s downfall began. The first bullet came when they traded 3-time DPOY Rudy Gobert, breaking their prolific duo. This left Mitchell confused. Likewise, trade talks were bound to come in. The Miami Heat and the New York Knicks were first to act. Although those talks have slowly come to a standstill. However, others are still eyeing the 3-time All-Star.

Notably, the Michael Jordan-led Charlotte Hornets and the Washington Wizards are trying to snatch the offensive powerhouse.
