Alongside Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, Donovan Mitchell and the status of the Utah Jazz ahead of the start of training camp in September remains one of the biggest headlines across the NBA. While Utah’s All-Star guard has not requested a trade from the team, the Jazz do appear to be going through some sort of a rebuild or re-tooling process, leading many to speculate that Mitchell could be following All-Star Rudy Gobert out the door in a trade before the start of the 2022-23 season.
