Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

When the Gobert trade goes through officially, will the Jazz have cap space? I wonder if the Jazz would give Ayton an offer sheet when the moratorium ends tomorrow. That would take PHX out of any immediate KD negotiation and possibly soften the market for KD.

No. We aren't close. We could take salary in a trade though... within the matching rules... so some things will open up a little.

We’d need to shed close to 40M for that to happen.

I just don’t see that but by the amount of people agreeing with you I must be in the minority.

If adding Collins/Ayton leaves us outside of the playoffs still then we are going to need 4-5 years of tanking maybe more. Our next 3 picks we can only hope to be as good as those three.

I debate this a lot with friends outside this board but when Zion is back where would you place the Pels? For me its still likely a play in team, or if not, just barely so. Then, would you rather have Zion, Ingram and CJ or Don, Collins and Ayton?

I dont think its a slam dunk either way but proves the point i think. Neither are going to be a juggernaut in a very deep west with so many teams previously mentioned getting dudes back this season.

What is the 50% sign and trade rule though?

He counts as 50% outgoing salary but 100% incoming salary in a trade. You can trade for up to 125% of the salary you send out.

For example at 25M:

It counts as 12.5M outgoing salary from Phoenix in a trade and 25M incoming for us.

For a straight Bogey swap half of Ayton’s salary would have to be equal to or more than $14,507,250.

The minimum first year of salary for Ayton for a straight Bogey swap is $29,014,500M. I’m fairly certain we’d have to add about 2M of salary outgoing to a third team or something though because our side doesn’t match up.

It gets complex but there is enough wiggle to make it work... I think Conley to Brooklyn and a pick from us and we take Ayton and I think there is enough other salary going back and forth it all gets deluded. If it happened that would be my guess.

Thanks for breaking it down.

Let's just say we make it Beasley instead of Bojan.

Beasley makes $15.5 next year. What does that mean for returning Ayton? $26 million year 1?
