The trade deadline saw the Jazz's rotation completely changed. Kelly Olynyk, Ochai Agbaji, and Simone Fontecchio were packaged for two draft picks, Otto Porter Jr., Kira Lewis Jr., and Kevin Knox.
Will Hardy reacted to the news ahead of Utah's game against Phoenix.
"There’s gonna be a process right now of figuring out what’s next in terms of who fits well with who," Hardy said. "The way that my brain thinks about it is always going to be about how we put the best ecosystem on the floor for 48 minutes. Everybody gets caught up in who starts. I understand the human part of that, but to me it’s unimportant. We’ve got to get through 48 minutes. We’ve got to figure out the balance of sub patterns and groups that are going to be on the floor together for long stretches of time over the course of the game. And I would anticipate that these next couple of games, we’re gonna have to experiment a little bit and try a few different things out to try and find the right balance with some different things going on."
