Spears article, where he credits Jeremy Woo:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Dybantsa is the top prospect in the draft, according to ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Woo. The Jazz have reached out to the Washington Wizards, who have the No. 1 pick, about potentially trading up to land the former BYU standout, a source said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">This could mean a wide range of things. Most likely, though, the Jazz are doing their due diligence. If the Jazz didn\u2019t at least call the Wizards to talk, it would be negligent. For Utah, they appear to be fine with where they\u2019re at in the draft, but if the Wizards want a certain player between AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson, and can get something from the Jazz and still draft them, it makes sense. The same goes for the Jazz. If they can get a trade done with the Wizards that doesn\u2019t cost them much, then it\u2019s worth doing. Don\u2019t forget, Utah made trade calls about Mikail Bridges and other players that were known to be on the trade market. It didn\u2019t materialize, but at least Utah was able to determine the cost.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">That said, there is a scenario where it might mean more. Maybe this is a plot twist, and the Jazz want to move up for a player we don\u2019t expect. What would happen if Utah trades up, but it\u2019s for Darryn Peterson?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to Jeremy Woo, the Utah Jazz have reached out to the Washington Wizards \u2026 about potentially trading&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":734762,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3785],"tags":[7,423,37331,6,422,427,4297,3972],"class_list":["post-734761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-utah-jazz","tag-basketball","tag-jazz","tag-jazz-rumors","tag-nba","tag-utah","tag-utah-jazz","tag-utah-jazz-trade-rumors","tag-utahjazz"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116576940468187527","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/734761","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=734761"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/734761\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/734762"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=734761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=734761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=734761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
