According to Woj, the Trail Blazers, Spurs and Jazz reached a three-way deal. The Jazz will get Spurs forward Juan Hernangomez and guard Alexander Walker, who has just been traded to the Blazers; the Blazers will get Jazz forwards Joe Ingles (season reimbursement), Elia Hughes and a second-round pick (from the Jazz); the Spurs will get Thomas Satoransky, whose contract is expiring, and a second-round pick (from the Jazz).

Previously, the Jazz had put Ingles, who was about to become a free agent, on the shelves, hoping to take the future draft pick in exchange for a good outside defender. And now, they've got young potential guard Walker who could make a positive contribution to the Jazz's bench. In addition, they got another top scorer, Hernan Gomez, to supplement the frontcourt. With the cruciate ligament torn, Ingles will miss all of the rest of the season, so trading him out for other players who are good for the team could enhance the Jazz's roster depth.

The Trail Blazers got Walker in Tuesday's trade involving CJ, but they have quite a few young guards. Anfenni Simmons and Josh Hart were already strong enough to support Lillard, so instead of keeping Walker in a limited role on the team, it would be better to trade him out.

The Spurs transformed Hernangomez, who didn't play much, into another ball carrier on the bench. Satoranski was also sent to the Blazers in a trade involving CJ, but his importance is not too great, but as a substitute player, he should still be able to get some playing time with the Spurs. At the same time, getting another second-round draft pick is a good result. Below is a rating of the deal for the three teams.
