Dennis Schroder Traded to Utah Jazz in Multi-Team Deal
Dennis Schroder, the veteran NBA guard, has been traded to the Utah Jazz as part of a multi-team deal involving the Miami Heat, Golden State Warriors, and Detroit Pistons. This marks the second time Schroder has been traded this season, having previously moved from the Brooklyn Nets to the Warriors in December. The Jazz, currently 12-37 and in a rebuilding phase, are not expected to retain Schroder, according to ESPN’s Marc J. Spears.
Schroder, 31, is averaging 14.4 points and 5.5 assists this season. While he started strong with the Nets, averaging 18.4 points and 6.6 assists, his performance dipped with the Warriors, where he posted 10.6 points and 4.4 assists in 24 games. The Jazz are likely to move him before the trade deadline or buy out his $13 million expiring contract, allowing him to sign with a playoff-contending team. If bought out, Schroder would be free to join any team under the second apron in the buyout market.
Schroder’s inclusion in the trade comes after he made controversial remarks comparing the NBA trade deadline to “modern slavery,” expressing frustration over players’ lack of control in such deals. Despite his comments, Schroder remains a valuable asset for teams seeking a veteran guard with playoff experience. His next destination could be his ninth team since leaving the Atlanta Hawks in 2018.
The Jazz, meanwhile, are focused on their rebuild and are expected to prioritize acquiring draft compensation or cap flexibility in any potential deal involving Schroder.
