The Utah Jazz’s summer has begun, and all eyes are on what Dennis Lindsey will do to improve this team. After watching the Jazz struggle against the Rockets in the playoffs, help is needed to ease the scoring burden placed on Donovan Mitchell.
This offseason, Lindsey could have as much as $20 million in cap space to play with if the Jazz let Derrick Favors walk in free agency, renounce the rights to Dante Exum and Raul Neto and then waive the non-guarantees for next year on Thabo Sefolosha, Jonas Jerebko and Ekpe Udoh’s contracts. Letting all these pieces go could cost the Jazz a lot of their depth, something they shouldn’t do.
