LOCKED ON JAZZ – Free Agency Primer #2 – Who has space, who is in the tax, who would be impacted if the tax drops, Utah Jazz positioning
David Locke, the radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, continues the preparation for the off-season and NBA Free agency with a look at the options for the Utah Jazz. Where the salary cap and the luxury tax sit for the 20-21 off-season. If the cap and tax move what will be in the impact? Nine teams are in the tax, 7 teams could be hugely impacted if the tax slips any lower than projected and only 6 teams have cap space. Are those 6 teams really actively involved in looking to add talent? The off-season has 90 plus free agents and their are is not money for most of them and not even enough roster spots so how bad will the squeeze be on these players.
The Jazz fell short in the second half as the Toronto defense shut the new-look Jazz down in route to cruising to an 114 – 82 Raptors victory. Lauri Markkanen shined for the Jazz with 20 points and 5 rebounds but the Raptors length and athleticism proved to be too much for the Jazz riding a dominant 3rd quarter to pull away from the Jazz who played well in the first half, only trailing by one.
