Because if you don't have cap space you can use it. But it all counts against the cap total
Jazz sign Filipowski
- Thread starter My2Cents
- Start date
So ideally we should sign him after we’re capped out, not right now.
I think it means the Jazz have no desire to use the capspace and are just completing the moves they want to make.
I guess whatever dumps that were available weren't that appealing
NIL.
He married? Engaged? Just shopping with his gf?

I thought his gf was coocoo for cocoa puffs.
I hope she's cooler than Hayward's wife. At least Kyle has some friends who seem really nice - Devin and Jared seem cool - maybe they'll come to Utah and play for the Jazz someday.
Who cares

If you don't have to use exceptions, you don't use them. Jazz is tanking now they don't need to waste any exceptions for contracts this small. I don't really understand fully how these 2nd round exceptions work, but I would imagine it's better to keep the maximum amount of exceptions open for the future.
If needed, you can always move easily players earning three millions a year.
Please explain why this is easy. What sort of transaction moves a back if bench player into someone’s cap room? What is the cost? Examples please.
Thought the engagement was announced some months ago. If I'm recalling correctly the intended date was sometime in late summer, but I haven't heard anything to know what the current situation is.

OK,let's say it is not extremely easy but it's also not too hard if Jazz will decide he's not part of their long term future. In 2-3 years Jazz is for sure in buyers mode. In that point they are looking to trade for good players from teams entering rebuild/retool. If Jazz sends back picks and player that's 1-2 years making three millions a year, it's not going to kill any reasonable deal. Teams Jazz will be trading with are after their picks and one Kyle in the deal ain't buzzkill.

Additional note: the time Jazz knows will they keep Kyle or not, his contract will be most probably max 2% from the cap room, possibly less. I don't get why this is any kind of a deal at all. You move that kind of contracts (especially if they are healthy young players) in the league all the time, as part of trade packages.

you gonna believe anything you read online? i've got some cool little mini games with a dude being murdered by a babe for you to try. anyway, it's all about perspective. his family sees an older girl stealing him away into her cult, whereas i see a mormon girl (as am i) rescuing him from an overbearing controlling family that are trying to stop him from experiencing true love and might be trying to milk him for his millions of dollar contract. (she might be after the money to, but what wife isn't?)
If you haven't read this article, you probably shouldn't be commenting on the story:

It is an interview with Kyle's mom and pretty much sets the record straight.
Kyle Filipowski’s story went viral during the NBA draft. Now his mother shares her side.

The main takeaway for me is that the Mom suffers from a mental illness which can explain most of the situation. It's actually really sad.
