Kevin O'Connor says no Jazz players off-limits for trades

"It was long assumed that Deron Williams was one of the players the Jazz would never trade. That obviously changed in February, when Utah shipped the All-Star point guard to New Jersey in a shocking blockbuster deal.

In recent days, a few of the Jazz's top players, including Al Jefferson, Paul Millsap and Devin Harris, have been associated with trade rumors.

It's unknown whether any deals involving those three players will go down, but even hearing their names in trade rumors begs the question if anybody on the team is untouchable a la Karl Malone and John Stockton.

Kevin O'Connor's response to that question?

"Greg Miller," the Jazz general manager quipped.

While media members chuckled, O'Connor continued: "He owns the team, so he and Gail (Miller) are untouchable. Outside of that, I think we're all available for trades."

He wasn't about to tip his hand, but O'Connor didn't rule out the possibility of a draft-day deal.

"Because we have two more picks, we hear more talk," O'Connor admitted.

It worked out immaculately for the Jazz the last time they were involved in a high-stakes deal on the day of the draft. Utah swapped up from the sixth spot to No. 3 and landed D-Will, who had a spectacular run with the team for five-plus seasons."
