In option 2 we trade Hayward for nothing?

So from a cap-management perspective, how many of these guys can the Jazz afford to pay max--Hayward, Gobert, Favors---assuming you want to keep Hood, Exum and Lyles on competitive deals and bring in a couple vets down the road? And assuming the Jazz can keep everyone, is it really a good idea?

Whether the Jazz decide to trade someone will primarily come down to the question of who they do and do not want to max out.

The Kanter situation came about because the Jazz didn't want to pay him $70M. I believe the Jazz really traded DWill because they didn't want to pay him $100M. In both cases, the decision to trade was the right decision.

Even if they can keep everyone, is that team good enough to be contenders? That's the ultimate question. DL is good, but not good enough to draft a championship team from scratch. Golden State drafted one superstar and two all stars, and still had to go out and get Iggy and Bogut for the final pieces of the puzzle.

So yeah the Jazz can keep everyone in the long run, but it brings them past the salary cap and have no ways to further improve outside of their draft picks.
 
No it won't. Murray will be a star in year one.
I dont think you are considered an all-star when you just compete in the 3 pt contest.

All joking aside i think he has the potential to an all-star. If i had a comparison for him coming out of college would be a little less athletic Ray Allen.
