    Jazz trade for Niang

    https://www.spotrac.com/nba/cap/_/year/2025/sort/cap_maximum_space According to this, the floor is (IIUC) $139M, which we were significantly above. We'll need to waive someone as well, I guess, since we traded a 2-way for someone who's not going to be 2-way, but unless they find a trade I...

    Jazz trade for Niang

    I don't think so. We were under the cap, now we're over (by $1.5M or so), but we used a trade exception to eat the RJ Luis-Niang difference. Edit: Over/under the cap, but not salary floor, which is way lower. (At least that's what I think.)

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Obviously the NOP/Bucks pick has the potential to be great, but I'd say both teams have a pretty good chance of making the playoffs too. They won't be tanking, after all.

    Day 1 Starting Lineup/depth chart as of right now? I can’t figure it out

    I would think this lot should move up a notch

    Ace, with honorable mention to Cody and Taylor (and Walter, and Keyonte, and Isaiah).

    Ah, I've misunderstood, then. Thanks.

    Clarkson finalizing buyout with Jazz

    Not once he clears waivers, I believe. Edit: To clarify, cap hit is the full contract regardless, but I think the Jazz buyout will just simply be whatever they agree on, given that he clears waivers. If someone pulled him off waivers they'd be stuck with parts of the contract.

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Joe Ingles signs with Wolves for 1/3.6M. Bit surprised they bring him back, but I guess he's there for culture/assistant coach type duties.

    Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

    Also in that case, next summer no team would have Bird rights for him.

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    5/125 (incl PO) for Naz Reid apparently. Sounds cheap.

    Could the Jazz Milk Washington if The Ace Saga Sours?

    Sounds good to me.

    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    I think this is very different from the Deron and Donovan situations. Players believed to not want to re-sign with their teams is a regular thing in the NBA. First-round picks not signing and leaving all that money behind to try again next draft? Probably never happened. These lines are not...

    Could the Jazz Milk Washington if The Ace Saga Sours?

    Here I am leaving work at page 11 and when I get home (granted, a couple of beers later), we're at page 23. What's the executive summary?
