According to Marc Stein, the Utah Jazz have enough interest in Brandon Podziemsk, that trade talks have not stopped.

From Stein’s article:

There is a belief in some corners of the league that Utah’s interest in Golden State’s Brandon Podziemski, in combination with future draft compensation that the Warriors could package with the All-Rookie first team selection, is serious enough that it keeps alive the prospect of a Markkanen trade between now and Aug. 6. That, as you’ve surely heard by now, is the first day Markkanen is eligible to renegotiate-and-extend his contract with the Jazz at a much higher number than his $18 million expiring salary for 2024-25.

It’s looking like Podziemski is the key to this for the Jazz. Getting Podz would obviously be something that makes a move like this worth it for the Jazz. They also mention that they want future draft combination to come with a Podz trade. Will the Warriors or Jazz figure something out? It feels like the Jazz have set up their own trade deadline with Markkanen for the 6th.

But the Warriors may be willing to move a different player if the Jazz ask. From Stein:

Yet there is also a growing belief leaguewide that the Warriors would be more willing to move Jonathan Kuminga in a Markkanen trade — or any big-swing deal — than Podziemski. To this point, however, it must be noted that Golden State’s offers for Markkanen have entered around a package featuring Moses Moody and draft compensation without including Podziemski or Kuminga.

It’s looking like a bit of a staring contest for the Jazz and Warriors. We’ll see if a trade happens. If the Jazz decide to re-negotiate Markkanen on August 6th, it likely puts off these talks to the next trade deadline. August 6th is not far off, we’ll see if the Jazz and Warriors can make something happen.
