Well, here we go! Now lets see what we do with Rudy.

NOICE!

All I care about is if there is a player option.

 

[NAOS]

According to oneye ‘s sources, the contract comes along with 6,882 different stipulations. And early indications suggest that approximately 110% of these combine into a smoke signal that represents his intention to force is way to the Knicks almost immediately.

I hope so. Someone needs to be able to apply leverage on this FO.

 

[Utesnjazz]

Dumb question. Does it kick in after the 2020/2021 season? Or does he get it this year?

Jazz FO should thank their lucky stars for the rookie max extension.

Same deal as Fox - who Mitchell is clearly a better player than.

He will still be on his rookie deal this season.

Next year - Jazz had an option for Mitchell this coming season which they exercised some time ago.

 

[Hekate]

Great. Now do Gobert.

For the record - he needs to make ANY of the All-NBA teams this year for the higher max to kick in. If he doesn't he will get ~163M on his contract.

 

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

This is great news! Thrilled to watch Mitchell for the next 6 years! Surround him with winners. I expect the Gobert news to come in the next week.

Also, frankly the price is reasonable all things considered.

Go Jazz!
