The Athletic's Jovan Buha said in a Monday livestream (31:30 mark) that he's "heard nothing but" the Jazz wanting two first-round picks and a young player for Kessler. The Lakers have only one tradable first-round pick over the next seven years, and that selection can only come in 2031 or 2032, per ESPN's Bobby Marks.

NBA reporter Jovan Buha revealed the asking price for Kessler. The Jazz are looking to get back one quality young player, along with two draft picks. Considering what he's done in the first three years of his career, this is a fair price that teams can match.

According to ESPN insider Dave McMenamin, the Lakers were connected to talks for Kessler this past week, along with a potential move for Miami Heat wing Andrew Wiggins, though both attempts fell through.
