Projected min salary players available

[kabenac]

Jazz can have up to 20 guys in training camp. Here’s who I expect them to keep (for now).

Conley, Exum, Neto
Mitchell, O’Neale, JWF
Bogdanovic, Jingles, Kidd, Oni
Niang, Brantley
Gobert, Davis, Bradley, Reed

That leaves 4 spots. . .

I’d personally love to see the Jazz offer minimum deals to younger guys like Frank Kaminsky, Dragan Bender, TLC and Furkan Korkmaz. Three year deals with partial guarantees. Get them into camp and let them compete with the young guys for the end of the roster spots.

Hope that the change of scenery and some coaching unlocks something in them.

It would be hilarious if Bender gets signed to a team and starts playing well. Suns fans would be so pissed. I like Korkmaz and can see him playing well for a well-coached team. T.L.C. has a lot of potential but has underwhelmed the past five seasons. It's going to be interesting to see where Frank goes. I feel like he'd be best in the East.

JaMychael Green and Wes Mathews would be nice additions to our roster. (WISH)

If JaMychal Green gets squeezed out of the market, the Jazz should do whatever they can to get him. Think he and Davis would be a badass tandem to replace Favors role on the team.

Patrick McCaw has 3 championships in 3 NBA seasons... How can u vote against him? I've also been singing his praises the whole time, since UNLV days...

I’d be fine with McCaw. Didn’t particularly like how he handled his RFA situation. He bet on himself and lost, so he put his team into a bind with a garbage contract that Cleveland had no intention of honoring.

Lost? He's got 3 championships in 3 years and been riddled with injuries the whole time... doesnt sound like losing to me.. did you not see the finals? what was that game-3 he subs in right before halftime and promptly hits a wide-open 3...

 

[David Stern]

I don't think he's a rotation quality guy for a top tier team.

Maybe not in the playoffs, but Jonas would be a great starter for us to help preserve Bojan/Ingles in the regular season

Would RHJ or Stanley Johnson be available at the minimums?

RHJ would be a great pickup. Forgot about him. Some capable basketball players are about to get squeezed really hard.

I can’t shake my interest in Trevor Booker. Legitimately. We know the effort is there and that he’s already familiar with how **** works here. He’s not a bum-*** shooter. The question is if he has juice left, but if he’s most of what he was when he was here? Seems pretty good as a nominal starter: be a real mother-****er to the other team for 12-18 MPG and not ruin the offense.

Wish we could get Wesley Matthews. He would be a great vet to have on this roster. I miss Mr. Nobody!

Don’t have to start him... have him as a break glass in case of emergency option or if one of the young guys ain’t working. I’d happily give him a roster spot.
