IIRC, it was mainly centered around future picks, Obaji, and Lauri Markkanen.


It was Collin Sexton, Lauri Markkanen and Ochai Agbaji along with first-round picks in 2025, 2027 and 2029, plus swaps.

Which looking back at it, is a huge haul, but wasn’t universally considered as such at the time.

If they got something like BI, Dyson, Hawkins, and 3 1sts for him now, which I don’t think is unrealistic, I’d say that’s fairly comparable

Markkanen was a huge haul for Utah.

Sexton was a throw in from Cleveland’s perspective.

Remains to be seen what those picks and swaps turn into. Probably nothing in the case of the swaps.

Not much different in the sense that, we probably would have had to lose one of Herb or Trey, which is much more palatable for Mitchell with 3 years left on a deal.

Lauri had no value at the time, anyone could have signed him before. He sat on rfa market a long long time with no interest.

This would be way way more of an overpay compared to what the Cavs paid.

I was the biggest Mitch guy on here, I linked the proof. That time has passed now. For the cost, and trade value and fit, it’s time to get Trae instead.
