How many people are on next year's roster?
1. Harris
2. Price
3. Tinsley
4. Burks
5. Hayward
6. Millsap
7. Jefferson
8. Favors
9. Kanter
You still need 4 more guys. Those 4 guys won't be superstar talent, or even mid-level or 3rd tier talent. I left Bell off intentionally. I would also like a couple of those guys gone. These are not mutually exclusive choices.
Price??? haha. I am sure you meant Watson.
In order of Salary players who are under contract
1. Jefferson
2. Harris
3. Milsap
4. Favors
5. Kanter
6. Bell (Most expect him to be gone either by trade or buyout)
7. Hayward
8. Burks
9. Watson
10. Tinsley (Team Option)
11. Carroll (Unguaranteed)
Howard and CJ Miles are unrestricted FA's. Evans is a restricted FA.
We still have our 2nd round draft pick (47)
I think it is likely that we will resign Evans with his qualifying offer. He is inexpensive and still has potential to improve.
If we don't pick up another PG I expect we will pick up Tinsley's option.
Same story with Carroll. He is inexpensive and provides something to the team.
I expect the Jazz to move Bell or buyout his contract. Assuming we don't make a major trade the roster will be something like this
1. Jefferson
2. Harris
3. Milsap
4. Favors
5. Kanter
6. Hayward
7. Burks
8. Watson
9. Tinsley/FA point guard
10. Carroll
11. Evans
12. Emergency Center
13. Veteran wing player FA
14. 2nd round pick
Personally I expect the Jazz to offer CJ miles a contract 3 years and about 9 million. CJ might get a better offer on the open market but we are going to need a veteran wing player. The unrestricted FA market is pretty slim on wing players.
