Yes, the Jazz have had interest in New York’s RJ Barrett. No, the Knicks shouldn’t include Barrett in a trade for Utah’s Donovan Mitchell, in my opinion. Knicks have ample draft capital, should be able to get a deal done without including Barrett: sny.tv/articles/knick… – 5:10 PM David Locke @DLocke09

The first thing I think of when you say Eric Paschall is that he’s best friends with Donovan Mitchell. But I think we can rule that relevance out for obvious reasons.
Second thing I think about is what he does with his feet when he shoots. The heel kick into floating feet J… pic.twitter.com/z6ZZQHtYOy – 2:43 PM Marc Stein @TheSteinLine

Remembering the time Bradley Beal scored 43 and Donovan Mitchell scored 42 in a head-to-head matchup in March of last year for no particular reason at all. They combined for 35 pts in the 3rd quarter. pic.twitter.com/Sds8mzVOHE – 1:10 PM Eric Walden @tribjazz

More on this storyline

There’s been some conflicting reports on the Utah Jazz and RJ Barrett amid the Knicks’ pursuit of Donovan Mitchell. While some reports state that the Jazz have had no in interest in Barrett, I don’t believe that is the case. Earlier this month – before reports emerged that Utah was willing to listen on Mitchell trade offers – the Jazz asked the Knicks about a package that included Mitchell Robinson, Barrett, other players, and at least three first-round picks. Around that time, members of the Jazz were also making educated guesses/projections on what an extension for Barrett may look like, per sources. -via SportsNet New York / July 29, 2022 Around the same time, some with the Jazz ranked Barrett among the best potential players they could receive in a trade from New York. So, as of earlier this month, the Jazz certainly had interest in Barrett as part of a trade return from the Knicks. -via SportsNet New York / July 29, 2022 Brooklyn’s Kevin Durant, as we seemingly discuss daily, is still said to be seeking a trade elsewhere. The Los Angeles Lakers still hope to find a route to acquiring Durant’s teammate Kyrie Irving. The New York Knicks, furthermore, still covet a trade for Utah’s Donovan Mitchell. -via marcstein.substack.com / July 29, 2022
