Jingles Type Transaction?

With other teams putting players on waivers, does anyone foresee the Jazz doing a transaction like how they acquired JIngles a couple of years ago?
 
We're more like the Clippers were that year- we're more likely to be cutting someone good loose rather than chasing someone else's scraps...

Good point.
 
Jazz have to cut a player as good as anything they will find on the wire.

Jazz FO will look at it i'm sure but nothing will happen.
 
That the kid from Indiana? I like him more than CJ for sure.

He had 23 for the Griz last game and is averaging 14 ppg in the preseason. I don't think he is getting cut. I was thinking someone from Golden State, San Antonio or Cleveland hitting the wire to help with Hayward and Burk's injury and be a cut above CJ.

CJ is unlikely to make the team. So anybody you sign must be better than CJ and one of Withey, Bolomboy or Neto/Mack. If CJ does make the team one of the others won't.
 
really though, what would we need?
Depth at C. After Gobert and Favors - who both missed large chunks of last season, and Favors has missed most of pre-season - our only legit center is Withey, who has been uninspiring in pre-season. Our only other options in the middle are Lyles and Diaw, which might be okay in certain situations but isn't something we want to see for extended minutes. So if someone hits the wire who is better than Withey, they're an option, but I wouldn't expect someone that valuable to become available.

so we have no NEED, got it.
