Jazz sign rookies Hayward, Evans

That's what I was thinking. Why announce it just for those two and not all the other players that play in summer league. They all get paid the same don't they?

Who knows, they may have really signed them to rookie contracts

Obviously they all don't get paid the same. Their draft position in the 1st round sets what they get paid guaranteed. As for 2nd rounders make under a million IF they make the team I would guess it's probably a prorated portion of that for summer league.

Undrafted probably much less.
 
They 'signed' Suttuon last summer, he made something like $50k to go to summer league and do Junior Jazz Basket Ball Camps. He would have made more money if he were to be on the training camp roster, and more again if he made the regular season roster. Then his non-gauranteed contract would've become gaurenteed after some number of weeks or a certain calendar date. Look at Wesely Mathews last season, there was a big story about him making it to the cut-off date where he was garaunteed some money. Evans deal is probably the same thing.
 
What about Tadija Dragicevic? Anyone heard if he's been signed? I can't see him coming over without a guaranteed deal.
 
I am sure it is a "make good contract." He keeps getting paid as long as he is not cut. At certain points in time different amounts of money become guaranteed.
