Dante Exum re-signed

You'd also lead the riot if they let him leave and he panned out good for someone else I'm sure. This should not affect signing Rubio.

I hope. To succeed, Dante is going to have to work on his shot quite a bit. Same with Favors. I doubt not his potential. But I question his ability to remain healthy. I really hope I'm proven wrong there.
 
Favors and Exum got a little too much per year, but that's not a big deal. I think Exum will never reach his full potential, but he can get close.

This was mentioned a bit, but I think the Jazz learned from the Hayward situation and are trying to show loyalty to their talent
by giving them a little extra. This makes them more likely to stay, stay happy, and shows other players and agents that you get
a good deal signing with Utah.
 
Here's the Jazz salary breakdown/not completely up to date obviously https://hoopshype.com/salaries/utah_jazz/

They'll have plenty of money to unload if need be, and will likely choose to not pick up Favs 2nd year to re-sign Rubio if need be. Re-signing Rubio if he's that important in a year is not even a question IMO. The Jazz can make it happen and it won't even be a question they can make it happen. That's the benefit of a lot of these contracts DL has signed, he leaves flexibility.

Good point about showing others what they've learned from Hayward. I made that same point with Favors. I need to remember that.

It should be noted to that Exum's deal expires when Donovan comes due, worst case scenario.
 
I just got off work and heard Monson on the radio asking if we paid too much but I never got the details. Not going to lie I was a little aggravated wondering how much we paid him. Came straight here when I got home and I feel better. Still an overpay but nothing crippling.

For the love of God just stay healthy please.
 
I’m not overly concerned about these contracts, I know the salary cap will go up. If it were not for the salary cap I wouldn’t care how much players get, I’d think the more the better. I think though, that if the jazz are going to bid against themselves and overpay, they should restructure Royce and give him a raise.
 
worst case he just becomes the new burks contract after next year lol. not thrilled about the $ but whatever. could be a good trade chip tbh if he ends up being good
