Brogdon is a restricted free agent.
We could offer early and force Milwaukee's hand.Brogdon is a restricted free agent.
You can also add Beverley, Ntilikina, Russell, McConnell, Brogdon, and maybe some trade options.

Which Hill?and Hill...
Which Hill?
Can we just trade for Luka Dončić somehow?
Why?David Griffin is on NBATV right now saying his Christmas wishlist is Utah trading for Otto Porter Jr.
Why?
Did he say how we were supposed to do that? What assets do we give up?He said he was super high on Utah and picked them as the #2 team in the west, and he said they need another ballhandler/playmaker to get there.

In free agency, we didn't try. In the opening minutes of free agency, we met with Favors and then overpaid him. Since we picked up Thabo's option about the same time, we were capped out. We had Exum's Bird rights so we kept him.
At the end of the day, we swapped Stockton for Grayson and Jerekbo for Niang. We didn't sign a single player in free agency despite being one of the only teams in all of free agency with cap space.
This summer, a ton of teams will have cap space but also, half the NBA is a free agent this summer. If we wait for summer, almost all signs point to Rubio and Favors staying. We are that loyal.
So yes, I think we need to decide on Favors vs Rubio by the deadline. If not, expect more of the same next year.

Over his last 10 games Porter is averaging 15 points, 8 boards, 2.5 assists, 2 steals, shooting 53.5% and 38% from 3.
If we really wanted to swing for the fences, we trade Rubio, Thabo, Udoh and 2nd rounders for Porter. Then use a trade exception to trade our 2019 1st rounder for Rozier.
If we did this, we would be able to keep Rozier, Porter AND Favors for this year and next. Our depth would be unreal for a playoff run this year.
We could start Rozier or bring him off the bench and start Korver or O'Neale. Just imagine a bench which is Favors, Crowder, Exum, Korver, O'Neale. Incredible depth.

Damn, $26mil? Is he worth that ?it wouldnt take a lot to get Porter Jr because the Wiz are a little desperate to dump his salary. Porter is at 26 mil so that is what the Jazz would need to come up with the get him.
Favors + Exum would work for Porter Jr and one of Oubre, Green, Satoransky or even Dekker (What a disappointment he has been)
