Tony Jones said he thinks Hood is playing tonight.

I'm sure the Jazz feel some sort of obligation to give the fans a good show especially now that Exum is resting with an injury and Lyles cant play yet.

Trey hasn't even been in Utah. Its one thing for his agent to say lets not have him play full contact games until he's signed, its another to not even have him around to talk with coaches, train, etc. Seems like this was a negotatinig tactic on his camps part, not necessarily the Jazz holding out for cap room. Dennis is going to obviously say its on Jazz so that the fans don't turn on a player.

Thanks for the info. That's good news.
 
Not going to happen but I don't see why Lyles couldn't suit up and play a couple of minutes. That being said there really no need for him to obviously. I'm just impatient.
 
If Trey plays. (what you will see)

He won't stuff any areas of the stat sheet, but you will see a lot of potential. You will see a player that is poised/comfortable. A player that will make a couple nice/smooth moves that make you say, "well.. just maybe."
 
Locke said that only 7 players haven't signed for the 120% their pick is allotted. Most of those 7 were signed by San Antonio when Lindsey was there.

It sounds like SA and Utah wants to put clauses in the contracts to pay the pick up to 120% depending on certain achievements. Lyle/his agent wanted the full 120%, no questions asked. I bet this happens more and more with Lindsey as the GM and the picks dropping in value every year.

No big deal.
 
I am glad this is coming to closure sooner rather than later.
My son starts his job at BestBuy this Thursday and I was afraid I would have to wait until then to see what was happening with Lyles...

Utah first rounder Trey Lyles gets done: four years, $10.4M.

Weird that Aldridge used the 4 year format in his tweet. Standard rookie contract
