Warriors have been the most engaged team for Lauri Markkanen trade recently
The Golden State Warriors have been the most engaged team for Lauri Markkanen in recent weeks, as league sources tell The Athletic they have discussed a proposal around Moses Moody, multiple first-round picks, multiple pick swaps and multiple second-round picks. The Jazz, however, have asked for the bulk of young talent and capital the Warriors possess, including Moody, Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski, along with picks, which has been a non-starter thus far for Golden State, league sources said.

If Lauri Markkanen signs a new deal with the Jazz on August 6, it doesn’t rule out a trade later this season.
Markkanen would be ineligible to be dealt until February 6, which is the day of the 2025 trade deadline.

More on this storyline
According to Tim MacMahon, Brandin Podziemski would need to be a part of a potential Lauri Markkanen trade for it to happen. At the 46:11 mark, Lowe asks MacMahon what’s the price for Markkanen. MacMahon says that “with educated speculation” he says that Brandin Podziemski. “I do think that if Podziemski is not in the deal, there wouldn’t be the deal” Lowe then responds “So Podziemski and 3-4 Warriors 1st round picks and swaps unprotected, betting against the Warriors going forward with Steph aging and Markkanen as the guy, and Draymond aging as well.” -via SLC Dunk / July 13, 2024
“Lauri Markkanen’s extension, renegotiation, and extension that he’s eligible for on August 6th, that is going to happen. That dude is going to get paid whether it’s in Utah or elsewhere. I think it’s going to be in Utah. We’ve been saying the guy is as attractive right now as a trade chip as he is in large part due to the fact that he’s only on an $18 million contract. But that is also why the man, after moving around so much, it’s time for this All-Star who’s 27 to get paid.” -via YouTube / July 12, 2024
Not much has changed for the Golden State Warriors in the past several days of a quieting free-agency period. They remain in pursuit of Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen, league sources confirm, but have entered the waiting period of what could be a drawn-out process. -via New York Times / July 9, 2024
