Agrees to massive extension
The writing was on the wall for this move a long time ago, as there was a lot of mutual interest to get this done quickly. George averaged 23.6 points, 6.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes per contest during the 2025-26 regular season, and moving forward he'll get to play alongside No. 2 overall pick Darryn Peterson in a new-look backcourt.

Figures to play key role in 2026-27
Jackson was traded from Memphis to Utah in February, though he appeared in only three regular-season games for the Jazz before undergoing surgery due to a growth in his left knee. The 2022-23 Defensive Player of the Year will look to make his presence felt on that end of the floor and anchor a now Kessler-less Jazz frontcourt. Jackson's two-way production will be crucial for a Utah team that's looking to return to playoff contention, and he hasn't averaged fewer than 18.6 points per game since the 2021-22 campaign, when he averaged 16.3 points per tilt for the Grizzlies.

Team-high 23 points in win
Mykhailiuk set the pace in scoring for Ukraine, knocking down a team-high five triples. The veteran sharpshooter wasn't a regular rotation member for the Jazz last year but was effective when called upon, averaging 9.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 23.1 minutes per game across 50 regular-season appearances (41 starts) while shooting 40.8 percent from deep. It's possible he'll reprise a similar role for Utah in 2026-27, meaning his availability could be sporadic while the squad is healthy.
