Think Jazz got him in a trade with Pistons couple years ago
I can’t find anything about him signing a new contract last year. He signed a 3 year deal with his current team in 2022, which means that if he hasn’t signed a new contract since then he’ll be free to come over with no buyout for 2025.
Yeah, I cant either, but it was mentioned in an article when we traded for him, but maybe that person was referring to the 2022 extension, but when they said it they made it seem like it happened recently.
I vaguely remember discussing that the Jazz should’ve just bought out his last year and have him come over this past summer, but he was still rehabbing his injury at the time. I think the argument was that the injury would allow the team to get a deal on his contract, but they might just be fine having no buyout and another year of data to work with. I’m assuming they’ve given him assurances that they’re going to bring him over to avoid a contract extension and everyone is just planning on his next move being a jump to the NBA. All in all, I’m excited about his potential.
