Lauri Markkanen, Jazz Agree to 5-Year, $238M Contract amid NBA Trade Rumors

The Jazz can't trade Markkanen for six months after re-signing him thanks to the collective bargaining agreement. If he had signed on Tuesday, Utah could've moved him on the day of the 2025 trade deadline (Feb. 6 at 3 p.m. ET). Doing so from Wednesday means he's locked in for the entire 2024-25 season.
