In fact, Scotto mentions that Olynyk “is considered Utah\u2019s top trade candidate ahead of the deadline”:<\/p>\n Olynyk has drawn interest from various teams across the league, sources say, and is considered Utah\u2019s top trade candidate ahead of the deadline by rival executives as he prepares to enter unrestricted free agency in the summer<\/p><\/blockquote>\n However, it is unclear whether the 24-25 Jazz<\/a> will move on from either of them.<\/p>\n This season, Clarkson is averaging 17.7 points and 4.8 assists per game. Olynyk, an upcoming free agent, is averaging 8 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. Clarkson and Olynyk have started just less than half the games they have played this year.<\/p>\n
