Taking a look at the Jazz players now under contract there are 2 spots available still and 2 2way contracts. Personally I think Oni and Brantley have earned the 2 way spots.

Depending on what you have for a depth chart I am looking at something like this

Conley, Exum, NWG
Mitchell, Mudiay
Ingles, O'Neale
Bogdonavic, Green, Niang
Gobert, Davis, Bradley

Depending on where you have Bojan getting his minutes the Jazz need a 2/3 and a 3/4

So lets see who is left

Shooting Guard - there are still a lot of options out there

Tyreke Evans 30 - I am a big fan but I think there are better options
Iman Shumpert 29 - Not a big fan
Kyle Korver 38 - to old now
Justin Holiday 30 - This would be interesting. played with Conley and is an average 3p shooter. But i would guess he would want a bigger role then the Jazz could offer
Lance Stephenson 28 - I love how he gets in other players heads and his own
Reggie Bullock 28 - I thought he signed some where
Vince Carter 42 - would be great for his farewell but dont see it
Jamal Crawford 39 - at one point yes but not now
Quincy Pondexter 31 - ehh
Corey Brewer 33 - maybe
Justin Anderson 25 - big fan but he cant shoot
Ian Clark 28 - former Jazz man
David Nwaba 26 - not a good shooter
Furkan Korkmaz 22 - Perfect developmental player love this
Wayne Selden 25 - again struggles from deep
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot 24 - again struggles from deep
Sindarius Thornwell 24 - I like him but he was epicaly bad from deep
Tyler Dorsey 23 - I like this one but struggled some last year from deep
Dairis Bertans 30 - who??????
Nik Stauskas 25 - could do worse
John Jenkins 28 - good shooter always seemed like a jazz type player
Jodie Meeks 32 - could do worse
R.J. Hunter 25 - lol still trying to make it. Maybe if he played defense

Small Forwards - list is much smaller

Lance Thomas 31 - journeyman
Jonathon Simmons 30 - I could see DL liking the former spur. eratic on his 3 point shooting
Thabo Sefolosha 35 - best shooter on the Jazz last year
Luol Deng 34 - not sure how much he has left and he cant shoot
Sam Dekker 25 - I dont know why he cant shoot
George King 25 - played on the summer league is known as a shooter
Alex Poythress 26 - played well for the Hawks last year
Thanasis Antetokounmpo 27 - ehhh
Devin Robinson 24 - doesnt seem to shoot the 3 well
Troy Williams 24 - i like this one

Power Forwards - i prefer a 3/4 I think Niang is a PF project at the moment but here goes

Ryan Anderson 31 - curious to see what is left at the end of the bench
Jon Leuer 30 - maybe
Dragan Bender 21 - this would be a perfect trial for a year or 2
Marquese Chriss 22 - talented head case that cant shoot
Guerschon Yabusele 23 - looks fat
Dante Cunningham 32 - journeyman
Channing Frye 36 - oldie but goodie
Udonis Haslem 39 - to old
Jonas Jerebko 32 - the Haywood replacement
Tyler Lydon 23 - would be funny if we could turn him into something
Jarell Martin 25 - would prefer to work Brantley
Christian Wood 24 - ehhh
Cheick Diallo 23 - not a shooter
Henry Ellenson 22 - would be interesting reclamation
Kenneth Faried 29 - good player to through at the bigger wings
Ray Spalding 22 - dont know much
Donatas Motiejunas 29 - nah not any more
Eric Moreland 27 - is a good shot blocker
Tyler Cavanaugh 25 - hey one of our 2 ways
Alan Williams 26 - journeyman
Johnathan Motley 24 - ehhh
Jason Smith 33 - lol maybe 5 years ago
Amile Jefferson 26 - need shooting
Johnathan Williams 24 - ehhh
 
I think some of theee guys are committed elsewhere, such as Bullock, but just scanning the list, here are a few guys that I think could be serviceable in some regard and at least worthy of a spot. Some are controversial but would be a bigger discussion:

Shumpert - he’s shot the three respectably the past couple years. I think he could actually be a pretty valuable defensive body on the wing. Used to being out of the rotation at this point.

Korver - he was injured the end of the regular season and was a “game time decision” or something for game 1. I know his minutes reduce in playoffs, but I think health also played a big role in that and not just limited ability.

Lance Stephenson - would certainly be interesting. I think we have enough strong character to allow someone like a Stephenson to have value being him.

Vince Carter - mostly PR but would be kinda cool.

Justin Holiday - solid guy to have if he’s getting significant(ish) minutes due to injury.

Thabo - knows the system, another body.

Deng - assuming he has any D left.

Ryan Anderson - could have value, especially during stretches where he may see time due to injury. Really space the floor.

Channing Frye - same as above, but he’s probably cooked. Great locker room guy.

Tyler Lydon - only for teh lulz and to troll Denver.

Reggie Bullock - if he’s indeed available, but I’m pretty sure NY reworked his contract (health?).

Almost completely agree with this list.
