Jazz Sign Kris Dunn for ROS + 1-Year

Why would we sign this guy to a minimum deal when we could sign Trent Forrest to a minimum and see if he could develop into a player similar to but not as good as Dunn? Don’t take shortcuts!

This is the way. Then, not only do you have a developed Trent Forrest, but you get the glory of being the franchise that developed Trent Forrest. That’s priceless. Anywhere he goes in the league, anything he does… guess what? You developed that.
 
Lessee, Dunn is averaging 12/4/5/2 steals with 1.4 TO in 23 MPG on 54/41/78 shooting splits at 60% EFG, with TS% at .611, 8th on the team. That is pretty damn efficient tbpfhwymf.

In advanced, he is a BPM of +4.6, with a +0.8 OBPM and +3.8 DBPM. This BPM actually tops the entire team with Lauri right behind him at +3.9. THT is currently at a -1.8 overall, with -1.9 OBPM and 0.0 DBPM. He is 3rd on the team for WS/48, at .185, ahead of Lauri at .183 and just behind Kessler at .197. He is 2nd in AST% at 28.5 behind only Conley who left the team at a 34.3 AST%. He is even ahead of Olynyk in TRB% at 11.4 where Kelly is at 10.7. The 6'3" guard is a better overall rebounder than one of our 7-footers. If you just take DRB% he is directly behind Lauri, at 19.2 where Lauri is at 20.7. On top of this his current PER is 20.1, well into the solid contributor level of production.

And according to the RAPTOR WAR rating, Dunn is our 7th best player. This all sounds like exactly what you want from a play-maker off the bench. Sign him for a few years, see where this goes.

Dunn is what we were all hoping Royce might become.

On defense, we acted like Royce was what Dunn is, though more people saw the light toward the end. He could stay in front of his shadow. I put most of the blame on Quin. He wasn’t always that bad.
 
I was really worried about his body when he had the ATL injuries. He was on bedrest in the middle of covid, but he looks fully healthy and better than ever. Extremely dominant in the G-League too after a not so great showing at the end of last season. It makes sense that he needed a lot of time to recover and now he's squashed the health concerns I had about him and I'm a believer in his late career renaissance. He's not 30 yet.

I think the cap situation is tough, but I would love to give him a long term deal.

If he's that good, he's absolutely gonna love playing behind Sexton, Clarkson, THT and Ochai next season. Plus maybe a high pick rookie.

I dislike Dunn because he's like the combination of all the attributes I hate in an NBA guard. Needs the ball, can't shoot, dribbles too much, gambles for steals. He's a guy from 2002 trying to get by with an outdated skillset in 2023.
