Jazz free agency: Can Utah retain Jordan Clarkson and still build the roster?

The Jazz plan on retaining Clarkson, their dynamic sixth man. But will they need to go into the luxury tax to keep pace in the conference?

Interesting note: Tony says the Jazz have hopes for Juwan Morgan and Miye Oni. Zero mention of Rayjon Tucker, JWF, or Jarrell Brantley.

That is interesting. Those three have a tougher road to find an NBA role. I think with Brantley the focus needs to be defense and spot up shooting. The other extra stuff I'm not sure is something you want him to hang his hat on. We need someone with that body type and I'd really like him to get some run with the varsity squad.

I think Brantley's game is just too weird to fit in the NBA. I just feel so justified because I've harped that Morgan >>> Brantley from the beginning.

Brantley's defense and frame are the most intriguing parts of his game to me. I remember in pre-season he stood Giannis up twice and he had some nice moments against DeRozan in the bubble. I think he's the type of guy you need to guard the LeBron's, Kahwi's, Giannis' of the world. Even if it is only for 10-15 minutes I like what he can do on that end.

But his team defense is bad bad.

I would have expected there to be some words on Tucker. Brantley needs to change how he plays before there is a talk about him and JWF's limitations are obvious even though I liked how he played in limited minutes.

Rayjon seems close to fit in a team setting but may be he is not picking things up as quick as the staff would like.

The Trib story today made it sound like Oni, Morgan and maybe Brantley might be the only benchers kept. It sounds like adios to JWF, NWG, Tucker, Bradley and Davis. They did make it sound like they are trying to trade Bradley and Davis.
