Orlando, Fla. ‧ Twenty-four hours later, the Jazz are feeling a little
better about Carlos Boozer’s departure for Chicago.
On Wednesday, when Boozer committed to the Bulls, it appeared that the Utah
would lose one of their most valuable assets for nothing in return.
On Thursday, however, the Jazz swung a sign-and-trade agreement with the
Bulls that netted them a significant trade exception.
In the deal, the Jazz will give Chicago a protected second round draft pick.
The trade exception will give Utah the amount of Boozer’s salary with the
Bulls during his first year, plus $100,000. Boozer’s salary next season is
expected to be in the range of $13 million.
The Jazz have one calender year to use the exception. Utah General Manager
Kevin O’Connor said Thursday that the hunt for a new player is expected to
start immediately.
“It gives us the opportunity to start investigating other rosters to see if
somebody might interest us,” O’Connor said. “The key is for us to remain
competitive. We want to get somebody that will keep us competitive, but we
also don’t want to take somebody that another team doesn’t want.”
This is the third major trade exception the Jazz have been able to secure in
the last eight months. Early last season, Utah received a $6.5 million
exception in the deal that sent Matt Harpring - — now retired — to the
Oklahoma City Thunder. Later in the season, the Jazz received $2.7 million in
the deal that sent Ronnie Brewer to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Utah can’t combine the exceptions. It is expected that the Jazz will attempt
to use the exception from the Boozer deal on a big man, one that could give
the team some length and much needed depth in the frontcourt.
