The Utah Jazz are facing an offseason that has the potential to define the franchise for half a decade. Utah’s biggest star, Gordon Hayward, is a free agent with many teams vying for his services. Gordon Hayward will deserve every red carpet, presentation, banner, and present that he’s given during his free agency tour. He has worked hard to become an All-Star and one of the league’s premier Small Forwards. While many expect Hayward to re-sign with Utah what happens if he doesn’t?
The last time Hayward hit free agency, Utah won out by technical default: Hayward was a restricted free agent.
