How Much $$$ Should Jazz Throw at Austin Reaves?

[Chargers Jazz Angels]

I would rather get Jaylen Brown.

Who says we can't have both? Ones a free agent and the other is still signed. My question is what is he going to cost?

For us it’s a flat cap hit though. It would be 24.5M per year.

I know, but it's still quite a lot. He's a good player, but I'm not sold on him being 25M good at all.

Dude has half a season of production in a contract year with Lebron and AD's gravity beside him. I wouldn't put too much hope he has similar production after he inks a contract.

If LAL ends up matching a 4/96 offer for Reaves, that means they pay him ~36/year in 25/26 and 26/27. That's a pretty hefty sum. I think it's debatable how much that's helping them. That said, if we were to throw 4/96 on him, I'd want them to match.

so that means first 2 years he get 12m. if im reeves i'd explore other teams and get payed now and not wait year 3-4 to get 36m

dear Lord Danny we need you

If LAL matches, he'll get 12+12+36+36 (given a 4/96 contract). If they don't match he gets 24*4.

Not sure it matters that much to Reaves. He'll earn just as much money over 4 years anyway (maybe different tax hit, not sure), and it's not like 12M the first couple of years is pocket money.

Also, staying in LA is probably good for business in general.
