They should look to see what they can get for Wiseman. Their window is 2-3 years and you should be able to trade for a better player/veteran fit during this window. It isn’t like Wiseman is the second coming of LeBron, his upside is that of a very good player but that won’t happen until their window is closed.
Wiseman + MIN pick + Wiggins can get them any player that is available this offseason

Utah struggling with the LakeShow.

The Jazz have been pretty perfect healthwise (8/9 rotational players have played 52+ games). Interested in seeing how they fare without Spider Mitchell

I was just noting how healthy Utah has been this season. They may be facing a bit of adversity to their Pleasantville season.
I think they were going to punt the game on the second night of a B2B then decided to only sit Gobert and Conley. They sat Favors too.

Curry this month (nine games): 39.9 ppg (40.7 pts per 36) on .753 true shooting.

31.0 ppg on .663 ts on the season. He and Beal are locked in battle for the scoring title now...

Beal 31.11
Curry 31.04

Note: Steph is crushing Beal in efficiency, even though Beal has been fabulously efficient (.596 ts).

If you haven't watched it already, at the ~4:20 mark of his post game interview, Stevens is asked about defending Curry. He essentially admits that Steph is his favorite player to watch. Its worth your time.

It's funny to me seeing people complaining about who Brad had guarding him or whatever. It simply didn't matter last night--he was in a ridiculous zone. That left-handed and-1 from the 3 point line was bonkers.

The strength it takes to even get a left handed heave to the rim from the 3P line on that play is mind-boggling, not even mentioning getting nothing but net.

It wasn't like he set up for it either---totally improvised after contact.

The dude is such a hand-eye coordination outlier, which I suppose shows in his golf game too.
