John Lucas III - Why would Jazz bring him back for 2nd year???

[mdalby]

A tweet from the Trib and also from The Score say that there are indications the Jazz are going to bring John Lucas III back for the second year of his deal if his contract isn't used in a trade.

I hope that means that his contract is used in a trade somehow.

No.

He's under contact for over a million bucks so of course they are brining him back. They aren't just going to cut him.

It's a team option. They wouldn't owe him a dime.

This says otherwise.

Apparently he makes young PG's feel good about themselves.

You'd feel good about yourself if you thought the vet at your position had no chance of stealing your spot.

Watch out for those air punches, though.

Maybe the FO views JLIII's air punches as a show of toughness, and our hoping his "grit and grizzle" will wear off on our pack of pansies.

Original reports always reported that second year was a team option. Hoopshype is wrong, I'm sure.

Lucas has an unguaranteed contract technically. Effectively the Jazz have a team option.

If they do so then I hope he is the thrid string PG behind Burke and Neto.

Would rather have Garrett tbh.
