An offseason plan with trade and draft explanation, 15 man lineup after all transaction, and thoughts on this new-look team ~ feel free to leave comments on the plan!
Trade:
Jazz: Joe Harris, Patty Mills, 21th pick
Nets: Kelly Olynyk
Nets can use some size and they will also want to retain that shooting, Olynyk seems like the best cheap option available
Hornets: THT
Jazz: 3 srps
Hornets are teams who need to try take cap in for meeting the cap floor and THT is also a gd fit beside LaMelo, secondary ball handler and not bad defense (who they picking with 2 is not taken into consideration)
Draft:
9th pick: Taylor Hendricks
16th pick: JHS
21th pick: Noah Clowney
28th pick: Sidy Cissoko
FA:
Resign Jordan Clarkson 3 years 60M
Mike Muscala 1 year 3M
Lineup:
Starting:
Sexton Agbaji Lauri Hendricks Kessler
Bench:
JHS Clarkson Sidy Clowney Muscala
Reserves:
Mills Dunn Harris Gay Samanic
Conclusion:
What im most excited for this team is the twin tower of Hendricks and Kessler, Hendricks to me is the next JJJ, great shot blocker and stretch big, shooting help is needed beside Kessler, and Hendricks fits perfect on both ends
Hopefully this will be a more opportunity season for Sexton, he deserves more last year
4 frps seems a bit too much for them to use, but I mean Jazz wants to build from the start again, and i think drafting these rookie in (JHS: potentially future starting PG, Clowney: another great defensive big and stretch ability, Sidy: adding another wing) will help their future very much
Hopefully Jazz can successfully develop all these guys into their own special roles
Resigned Clarkson, he was hving not a bad season with 20 PPG and he's worth the 20M to me (might be bit too much but Jazz also need to spend some money to reach cap floor
Shooting is always sth that Jazz likes to have more of in their squad, so with both drafted bigs being able to stretch, Muscala being a similar player with Olynyk, i think these are realistic moves for the Jazz to make
