During the Danny Ainge (and now Austin Ainge) era, the Utah Jazz have had an issue with being bad to prioritize their draft positioning, aka tanking. While they hold a protected first-round pick of their own in 2026, the Jazz are making a big swing to improve this roster.

The Utah Jazz are sending four players and three draft picks to Memphis in a trade for Jaren Jackson Jr.

Jaren Jackson Jr. scored 30 points, Ty Jerome added 19 and Memphis built a 20-point lead in the second half and held on for a 137-128 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves

Jaren Jackson Jr. had 30 points, Ty Jerome added 19 points with eight assists, and Jaylen Wells scored 18 to lead the Memphis Grizzlies to a 137-128 victory Monday night over the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves to snap a six-game losing streak.
