Utah`s options this summer

Depending on what happens tonight, I would not be surprised if the following happens: Willie Reed is signed. Naz and Cavanaugh get promoted. The 2nd round pick sticks and the battle is on for the two ways. Basically these guys would be cheap, Jensen really likes Reed and he is a warhorse, I don't think Naz and Cavanaugh are long term players but they would promote team chemistry. Cavanaugh for all his warts had something like the sixth best three point percentage in the GLeague last year. Perhaps a Stanton Kidd or someone like that sneaks in.
 
Good post, homey. Reed has NBA experience. Will he be healthy by Oct? Is Haas a possibility?
Naz could take Neto's spot.
Cousins shot pretty well for Salt Lake. He could be in the mix.

Whats the least amount you think Rubio would take to stay with the Jazz?

I don't think it's just about the $. There's a pride issue. Ricky was hurt about the rumors at the deadline. And Lindsey pretty much told him he wasn't wanted by saying he wouldn't be a priority.

Lindsey isn't going to cut Derrick to sign Rubio. Not when he's gone to great lengths to keep Exum.

Rubio's ship has set sail. I think he's bound for Boston. And wouldn't that be ironic? Lindsey traded for him so he could play next to Gordon. IINM, wasn't Ricky part of the entourage that met with Hayward? And now that pairing could take place - in Boston.
 
Our options are slim as of now, but I think we should heavily scout all of the SL tournaments and sign a few of the better players (not draft picks obviously) for cheap. There are always a few guys that break through this shine in SL and we should take advantage of this and snatch them up.

Naz and Cavanaugh are not NBA players.

The Jazz have already spent 2 years and a few million developing Bradley - it's sink or swim time for him.

Unless they dump Favors or find a buyer for Exum, The Jazz are going to have to get very creative to fill out their roster.

I can pretty much guarantee that the jazz could find a better guard for exums salary.

Exum has been literally one of the worst players in the NBA in his career. And that's when he is even healthy

Agreed - the love affair for Dante Exum exists only with a few people in Utah. And that number is dwindling.

He's trade filler at best right now.
 
Two players I don't want on the Jazz team at the same time is Kevin Love and Dante 'Glass man' Exum. Both are bonafide injury prones. Those two could probably become bff since they'll be spending a lot of time of the bench together if it happened. We will not be better with Kevin Love!

His trade value is at an all-time low right now. The Jazz may as well see what he can do and how long he'll stay healthy this upcoming season.

Unfortunately, the problem is with where all that support is concentrated. Right now there's high representation of those few amongst the most powerful.
