Buyout Targets

[DasJazz]

I think the Nets have to waive someone... Bembry, Griffin, James Johnson, Aldridge.... I know they were trying to move Claxton. If they waive him there will be a lot of teams interested. They could waive Jevon Carter who would be interesting to me if we didn't have Forrest... but with Trent emerging I'm good.

Guys... we have our team... my only question is will they cheap out on House.

I would take a flier on Bembry

We need to pounce on this and sign him!

I think the Jazz will probably give their last roster spot to Forrest and that will put us at 15 contracts.

It just seems like that is the no brainer or no brainers but the Jazz seem to be hesitating. Makes you wonder why.

They're probably just seeing what's out there. Although, they could also waive Hernangomez. Actually, I think the Jazz could do something with Drew Eubanks, though he's a similar player to Hernangomez.

I don't know that I ever got confirmation on whether two-ways get to play in the playoffs this year, but I'd assume they likely allowed that again (if they hadn't already) back in December when they made changes and allowed for hardship 10-days. If Forrest is eligible for the playoffs, I don't see them converting him to a regular contract and instead would say they'd offer him a regular deal this off-season.

I suspect they take care of that shortly… would expect him to get a two year deal. Not sure what the deadline is to convert/sign him but I’m guessing it saves Ryan a few shekels to wait.

There might be another obscure mid-1st round pick from 4 years ago who can't break the rotation on a mid-tier to bad team with long arms we might feel will be the difference maker for "reasons", that we feel we need to sign.

If Forrest signs to reg roster do Jazz have any two way players

The Jazz traded Ingles to shed $4M in salary. I'd be confident in saying we're done maneuvering and we're not going to be waiving anyone.

I think there is no service day limit but I don’t think they can play in the playoffs this year.

If that's indeed the case, then I'd expect us to convert him on whatever day the deadline is.
