Cleveland will send Utah three unprotected first round picks and two pick swaps as part of the deal, sources said.

Wow I didn't see Mitchell going to the Cavs. I wonder how he feels about it.

in all honesty he's going to a top 5 eastern team, and if not for injuries cleveland was top 3 team in the east last year and NYK sucks, period, so he's actually got a much better team around him in cleveland than either he had in utah or would have in new york.

I don't follow the NBA closely but it looks like DM is joining a talented, young core of players. Maybe a little below a Top 4 team in the East. The team might be better than any of his Utah teams. And who knows, they may try to add some pieces after next season. He could have done much worse (Knicks).

5 year 163 million guaranteed he is going to the bank.

Cavs were pretty good this year with Garland, Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Adding Donovan is huge. Def a top 4-5 team in the East. Great young core that could really turn some heads come playoffs. Mobley is legit too, and any game I’ve seen of D Garland, he’s balled out .Allen is such a presence too.

Supposedly when he got the news on the golf course, he was overjoyed. Maybe there was more than just the beef with Gobert. Maybe he was ready to get out of Utah...
