The Jazz Are Trading Kelly Olynyk And Ochai Agbaji To The Raptors
As the NBA trade deadline approached, the Utah Jazz traded backup center Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji to the Toronto Raptors for Kira Lewis, Otto Porter Jr., and a 2024 first-round pick. The Raptors’ acquisition of Olynyk was surprising, as they were expected to be sellers, not buyers, at the deadline. Olynyk is averaging 8.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game this season for the Jazz, while Agbaji is averaging 5.4 points and 2.5 rebounds per game. On the other hand, Porter Jr. will be joining the Jazz alongside Lewis. The Raptors’ decision to part ways with a pick is seen as an attempt to improve their performance right now.
