Jazz Sign Kris Dunn for ROS + 1-Year

[Elizah Huge]

Did we get any relief from Westbrook’s buyout? I never heard if that was the case - just that we bought him out, waives him and the Clippers were dumb enough to sign him for the rest of the season.

768k

768k

Hadn’t heard that. Doesn’t seem like nearly enough for $18 million. Is that the prorated minimum contract that he signed with the Clippers?

Pretty much, so essentially we didn’t get anything extra on top back. Not really surprised.

I guess if they weren’t playing hardball, it makes sense. No need to rock the boat. Cut your losses and move on.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Hell to the yes.

Man... I'm glad we finally did this right. If you get the guy get the upside on that second year too.

Exactly

I am happy Dunn's hard work is paying off. Well deserved! And I am happy to be wrong about the contract length.

 

[KqWIN]

We are 949k under the tax and that includes Dunn’s salary for the rest of the year.

Dang....just short of being able to Hinkie one more player.

 

[kabenac]

This is awesome. Two years is perfect.

Two year deal with a team option is exactly what the Jazz should be doing with guys like this. Good move.

Actually we can, a prorated vet minimum right now would be 384k.

Nice job, wonder how much is guaranteed....bc if it's not much his agent is terrible lol.

His agent is Tremendous Upside.

Bro don’t you think DL knew that and tried? If he didn’t do it before, it’s because it couldn’t happen.

 

[Elizah Huge]

The 2-year deal part is a little misleading. It’s for the rest of the season and plus a non-guaranteed team option for 2023-24 (next season). Would have liked to get another year added on but it’s all good.

Does it count against the cap prorated?

 

[Elizah Huge]

Does it count against the cap prorated?

Yes. Cap hold next year wouldn’t be but that doesn’t matter because we will have tons of cap space.

 

[KqWIN]

Yes. Cap hold next year wouldn’t be but that doesn’t matter because we will have tons of cap space.

Great. No excuses to not use the last roster spot. We should put one more player in contract jail.

At least try someone out on a 10-day.

LOL... its dumb to look back but I remember the Mudiay deal... where he literally asked to come here... and we didn't get a team option. House was the other one... we blew up the whole team so who cares but imagine if we had kept it together... you'd want a budget wing or two (this was under JZ/Ainge).

It is nice when the front office does the obvious right thing. I don't ask much.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

you can also churn two-way guys and get some player rights.

The Jazz need to sign another player by the end of the week to reach the roster minimum number of players.
