Episode Notes
Restricted Free Agency is always tense and tough in the NBA, and the Utah Jazz are going through it right now with Walker Kessler. Kessler's camp lets it be known that they are VERY UPSET, and the Jazz, in response, set the record straight about the current contract offer for Kessler.
Mark Russell Pereira (@jazzmanmark.com) and Ken Clayton (X: @k_clayt; Bluesky: @loudclap) EXPLORE THE SITUATION around Walker Kessler, and discuss the vagaries and frustrations of Restricted Free Agency. What is Kessler's fair value on the open market? Who is guiding Kessler towards such a bad attitude about it all? Is the relationship...salvageable?
As part of this offseason preview for the Utah Jazz, Mark and Ken also talk about shoring up the rest of the frontcourt. What are reasonable backup center options for the Jazz, since Jusuf Nurkic is a free agent? How much should it cost to bring back Nurkic? Is Kevin Love worth bringing back to fill up the 15th roster spot?
