Nurkic is Fat and Cant Run (Source: His Coach)

I look at it as we "paid" to dump Sexton + had to take $ back to get to the salary floor. But why we were the team that had to add the pick is interesting to me.
They’re both expiring contracts. We also didn’t have to get to the salary floor. The salary difference was negligible.

It doesn’t make sense. But whatever.
 
Nurkic could be 400 lbs and he'd still provide more value to this franchise than Sexton.
How so?

Because Sexton's value is almost entirely negative. He takes minutes from young players and will win more games.

It's incredible to me that people still can't wrap their heads around the idea that Sexton had no value to this Jazz team and no value to any other team in the league.
 
Nurk being out of shape and unable to run is a feature... not a bug.

There was a world in which Nurkic got in shape, played well, and earned one more contract. This world where he's indifferent to playing basketball and collecting his last NBA contract is ideal for the Jazz. It's one of the reasons why I've been interested in trading in him for awhile, he doesn't seem too interested in playing basketball or extending his career.

Perfect situation would be to send him home, get a prospect C on roster, and then just waive him at deadline if no trade materializes. Everyone wins.
