Not sure if this negotiation will be similar to other years… because he was a higher rated prospect but also has some injury stuff he may want to get money locked in before suiting up… we also might want to understand our full options prior to signing that deal.

He technically does not belong to the Jazz until after the Salt Lake league is finished as that is when the trade is finally approved for salary cap purposes.

Drafted guys have played in summer league without contracts since forever. I'm really puzzled about the trade not being finalized but for some reason we can hold a press conference. At least be consistent.

I don't know why the press conference was allowed, but my understanding is that our acquisition of Butler depends on the Pels/Grizz trade, which depends on the new season's books being opened. Thus it will only go through on or after August 6.
 
The rosters were released and some new names added. They have an elderly gentlemen at 31 years old Kyle Fogg who has averaged 24.7 ppg his last seven pro seasons, Danny Green's brother who played at Indiana, Shaqqan Aaron who was Spida's teammate briefly at the Ville, Kyle Allman MVP of the Big West Conference, Isiah Wright who played a couple of years for the U of Utah, and Jawan Evans a PG who was a 2nd round pick in 2017. This batch of guys all look like they are vying for the Spencer Butterfield or the Trombone Player Memorial award.
