Returning champion Tim MacMahon (ESPN, The Hoop Collective, Howdy Partners) joined to talk all things Jazz ahead of the trade deadline.
“Lauri Markkanen, he’s going to be an All-Star,” MacMahon prophesied. “I don’t think there’s any question about that. He absolutely deserves to be. He has taken his game to a different level. I think he also has to be in consideration for Most Improved Player. And you know you can pencil him in as a, not just a starter, but as a go-to guy for the Jazz for a while.”
