SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4 Sports) – The Utah Jazz continue to wheel and deal before the NBA trade deadline.

After officially announcing a trade that sent Simone Fontecchio to Detroit, the Jazz have traded Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Otto Porter, Kira Lewis Jr. and a 2024 first round draft pick.

The 2024 pick will likely be a late first rounder, and will be the least favorable pick between Oklahoma City, the L.A. Clippers and the Houston Rockets.

The 32-year-old Olynyk played in 118 games for the Jazz over the last two seasons, averaging 10.6 points and 5.7 rebounds per game. Olynyk started all 68 games he played last year, but primarily came off the bench this season.

Agbaji, the 14th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, was acquired by the Jazz in the Donovan Mitchell trade with Cleveland. In his time with the Jazz, Agbaji played in 110 games, averaging 6.7 points and 2.2 rebounds. Agbaji showed promise in his rookie season, making 22 starts down the stretch, but has struggled this year, averaging 5.4 points per game, while shooting 33.1 percent from three-point range.

Porter, a 6-7 small forward, is in his 11th NBA season with a career scoring average of 10.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists. He has played in just 15 games this year with the Raptors. Porter has played for Washington, Chicago, Orlando, Golden State and Toronto.

Porter shoots 47.7 percent from the field and 39.7 percent from beyond the arc. He was selected with the third overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Wizards and helped the Warriors to an NBA Championship in 2022.

Lewis, a 6-1 point guard, is in his fourth NBA season. He was just traded to Toronto from New Orleans in the Bruce Brown deal on January 17th. Lewis played his first four seasons with the Pelicans, averaging 5.4 points and 1.8 assists per game. The Meridianville, Ala., native was selected by New Orleans with the 13th overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft after a two-year college career at Alabama.

The Jazz (26-26) play at Phoenix tonight.
