With the signing of Clarkson and Favors, what money does Utah have let to play with? Only vet minimum deals or do they still have MLE or BAE?
Money remaining???

- Start date
BAE but unlikely to use it because we’re over the tax by 3M with 14 players on the roster.

TJ thinks Brantley oni and Morgan will all be here. JWF unlikely. What is the deal with nigels contract? Team option? Also haven’t heard much talk about tucker. Just trying to see why we don’t hold off a bit in signing a couple of these guys and see what shakes loose in a few days.

All of these guys with Stars pedigreed could all be waived to clear some room and then sign some guys for the minimum as roster fillers.

Are we definitely over the luxury with these two deals?

According to homey math we are unless we jettison the guys that played some with the Stars last year and replace them with minimum wage rookies.

Couple people have said so.
I'm not convinced though. Will depend on how the JC and Favs contracts are structured and whether the Jazz use the BAE.

Read a text earlier from Locke that with the signing of Faves and CJ the jazz are over the luxury tax threshold.

Every time I see what Conley makes I stop breathing for about 10 seconds.

The last key number here is the tax apron at $138.928 million. This is the number the Jazz are hard capped at. Given that the Jazz are already over the tax, it behooves them to use the BAE as well. Brantley was extended a QO, so his spot is safe. My guess is that the Jazz try to find a worthwhile player on the BAE to replace Tucker's spot.

Missing Hughes.
Don’t first round draft picks get a guaranteed contract?
