  "textContent": "The Utah Jazz ultimately did what the Dallas Mavericks could not — get a massive pick haul from the Los Angeles Lakers in a trade.\n\nThe Jazz agreed on Wednesday to send center Walker Kessler to the Lakers for unprotected first-round picks in 2031 and 2033 and rights to pick swaps in 2028 and 2030, the Deseret News confirmed. Kessler will be signing a four-year, $130 million deal.\n\nESPN was first to report the news.\n\nThe Jazz will also create a trade exception worth half of Kessler’s first-year salary with the Lakers.\n\nFamously, the Mavericks only received a single first-round pick when they traded Luka Doncic to the Lakers last year.\n\n_This story will be updated._",
