The Jazz will want a serious return for All-Star forward Lauri Markkanen if the Pistons come calling. It may be more than Detroit is willing to part with.
According to Marc Stein, Utah is willing to part with Markkanen if it can land a significant return. Detroit possesses a young core, but its 14-2 start may push the team’s timeline up by a year. Stein reports that any package in return for Markkanen would almost certainly have to include 22-year-old guard Ausar Thompson. He’s not someone the Pistons want to move.
