With the understanding that Conley’s max contract will expire this year and the Jazz will then likely have no cap space to sign another player, who would you then prefer the Jazz trade Conley’s expiring deal + 1st round draft pick for if you could pick one of these four guys?

*Note that the Jazz do have Conley’s Bird’s rights, meaning they can re-sign their own guy to any contract even though they’re over the cap, but I doubt the Jazz nor Conley would want to.

Otto Porter, - 27 years old, 1 yr $27.5mm left on his contract (His contract his expiring but the Jazz would receive his Bird's rights
DAngelo Russell- 24 years old, 3 yrs $90mm left on his contract
Tobias Harris - 28 years old, 4 years $145mm lefton his contract
Kevin Love- 31 years old, 3 years $90mm left on his contract
Al Horford- 34 years old, 3 years $81mm left on his contract (would probably come with additional compensation compared to the other guys)
 
Tobias Harris would be the most tempting on the list. The others don't inspire because 3 years with older players... yuck. Just let Conley expire.

Also, Andy Larsen said that Favors is extremely interested in returning to the Jazz. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. PRETTY PLEASE WITH A CHERRY ON TOP! If Favors comes back then Tobias doesn't make sense.
 
“Immediate cap-space and hopefully picks” isn’t on the list.

I’ve been clinging to the Knicks salary dump idea proposed by HH. Still hoping by some miracle we can land Christian Wood.
 
Porter is the best idea I think. DLo seems unlikely to be an option. Griffin is another feasible one imo (probably my 2nd choice after Porter).
 
either way Conley needs to get moved and we need big changes this offseason or else be prepared for a playoff-less season

well if Porter is healthy I would say him but I am not adding a first round pick. Jazz need to keep their picks to improve the bench. All the other guys are overpaid with too many years under contract.
 
I'd do Otto first and Love second. I'd honestly be happy with any of those picks over Conley except Al
 
I’d probably roll the dice on Tobias Harris getting back to the near All-Star form that he was at in Los Angeles. Philly was always a strange fit for him. Was hoping the Jazz would make a move, but the 76ers overpaid to keep him. It’s a risk, but paying so much for Conley severely limits options moving forward.
