Donovan Mitchell is on the move.
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Cavaliers have acquired the All-Star guard from the Jazz for Collin Sexton, Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Agbaji, three unprotected first-round picks and two pick swaps.
After spending his first five seasons with the Jazz, Mitchell will find a new home in Cleveland. The No. 13 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft has exceeded all expectations to this point in his career, averaging 23.9 points, 4.5 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game.
Mitchell made three All-Star teams during his time in Utah, and the 25-year-old will look to take his game to another level in a new uniform next season.
Here is everything we know about the blockbuster deal.
Donovan Mitchell trade details
- Cavaliers get: Donovan Mitchell
- Jazz get: Lauri Markkanen, Collin Sexton, Ochai Agbaji, three unprotected first-round picks (2025, 2027, 2029), two pick swaps (2026, 2028)
The Cavaliers have pulled off a stunning trade, landing All-Star guard Mitchell at a very reasonable price for both sides.
Cleveland gets the offensive help they need with Mitchell being one of the most prolific scoring guards in the NBA and the Jazz receive three young pieces and plenty of draft compensation in return.
Mitchell will slot right into the starting lineup, building an exciting core of the present and future alongside Darius Garland, Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
Sexton will head to Utah in a sign-and-trade, with The Athletic's Shams Charania reporting the former No. 8 overall pick has reached a four-year, $72 million deal with the Jazz.
Utah also lands a former top-10 pick in Markkanen (No. 7 overall in 2017) and the Cavaliers' 2022 first-round pick in Agbaji, along with three unprotected first-round picks and two pick swaps to hit the reset button and build for the future.
