Joe Ingles contract becomes horrendous

[TheGobertReport]

He was only worth that much in order to lure Hayward back. Now that Hayward is gone, Ingles contract looks like the worst in the NBA and will handcuff the Jazz. Maybe he starts the season ON FIRE and the Jazz can trade him.

It's a bit much, I would agree. But I've learned never to underestimate the value of a good locker room presence and the quintessential glue guy.

$13 mil/per for one of the better 3point shooters in the league, a bull dog defender, and a major locker room leader is not a horrendous contract just because Hayward missed his college coach. Well that and I think G-Time is actually more about All-Star appearances than actual championships.

Glad to have Ingles back and can't wait to see him playing alongside Otto Porter Jr.

Had I been told I'd see this sentence written seriously (?) on Jazzfanz at the end of last season, I would've tried to flush my head down a toilet.

I figured 7-8M would be a steal for Ingles with 10M being fair. 13M isn't absolutely ridiculous for all he does.

Its only good if the last year is nonguaranteed.

I definitely wouldn't say horrendous, but given what the goal is of this team the next 4 years you could call it unnecessary.

Not it is not. It is an extremely tradeable piece in about 1 season.

You'd be doing us all a favor.

Great locker room guy, 4th in the entire NBA in 3 point percentage at 44% last year, above average passer, solid rebounder, and perhaps our 2nd best defender next to Rudy last year.

Yeah, his contract is far from bad.

This depends completely on how he plays this year. No one is going to take on a 3 years and 40 million unless the guy is producing.

Try anyway.

Do yourself a favor, and look up comparable 3&D players who aren't on their rookie contracts. Let us know what you come up with.
