Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

On ESPN700 Tony Jones said that Clarkson is seeking a contract in the $20 million a year range, and if he gets it, he thinks it will be somewhere else because he doesn't think the Jazz will go that high. He also said the Jazz really want Ochai to be their starting shooting guard next year. That means Clarkson would go back to being a 6th man, and if that's the case, the Jazz wouldn't go higher than $14-$16 million a year.

Tony also said the Jazz want to give Kessler, Ocahi and THT all the minutes they can the rest of the season.

not trading Clarkson really is going to look like a mistake after all

Interesting, when we didn't make a trade for him I assumed we were planning on throwing money at JC. I'm glad that we won't be doing that, but not sure why we didn't look to get some assets for him since we knew what he would be asking for.

You don't think he can get 20 somewhere else? Or 14 from a more desirable location than Utah?
What team with cap space will give him more? He's in a difficult salary range. We could help him with a sign and trade but otherwise its bottom feeders or the MLE.
 
If JC could have gotten us a first I think he would have been moved. If the price is just 5 seconds... I'm cool waiting on FA.

I thought he already said Sexton was our 6th man of the future?

It sounds to me like they are playing hardball a bit. I'll be honest... I expect him back on a deal in the 15-16m range. I just have a hard time seeing the team that will go to 20M that can go to 20M.
