Royce O’Neale Contract Extension

[DasJazz]

From whom would you suggest he take shots from?

I would suggest he takes what he's given which typically equates to more than 6 points a night.

That's pretty fair. Glad we're not losing him. Dude plays defense and improves his skills.

I think this summer is regarded as a weak free agency class, IINM. Royce could have received a stupid contract. I think it's a fair deal for the Jazz' best perimeter defender. I wish he would shoot a bit more, though. At the % he shoots 3's, he should be taking more of them.

I’m fine with how many he takes. Perhaps only shoot when he passes up wide open ones. When he’s shooting threes, even with a good percentage, I feel more comfortable with other guys doing it. Not a knock on him.

For less than the MLE, I'm happy for that to be his biggest weakness.

When you think how much Jazz paid Exum this is absolute bargain.

It's about damn time is all I can say.

Brilliant and incredible value. The league is always overpaying come summer regardless of what they say now. The cap is on the rise. Royce is in the top 5 players in the league in 3 pt percentage right now and he plays incredible defense. I would have thought $13 million was a reasonable rate given the competition in the league but I love that he wasnt greedy and we are able to remain competitive if others follow his example.

Evan Turner - $18.6
Allen Crabbe - $18.5
Solomon Hill - $12.7
Brandon Knight - $15.6
Timofey Mozgov - $16.7
Tim Hardaway - $19.5
Chandler Parsons - $25
Exum - $11

Royce - $8

Just saying. And if you want more examples...

It is an incredible value. He's the 2nd best defensive player on the Jazz. He's the 2nd best rebounder on the Jazz.

He's the one player on the Jazz who needs to shoot the ball MORE. Royce O'Neale is 100% Jazz man for life!

Unfortunately, there are only 2 defensive players in the rotation.
