As it was announced on Thursday, the Utah Jazz underwent their first round of cuts, parting ways with Eric Dawson, Quincy Ford, and Marcus Paige. This move puts the Jazz ever closer to their final roster number. Only 15 players will eventually qualify for the team and now just 17 still remain.
This leaves the Jazz with the tough decision of deciding who should stay and who should go. While the vast majority of the roster is already a lock (14 of the 17 have guaranteed contracts for 2016-17), the players whose future with the Jazz is most in question as they do not have guaranteed contracts are Henry Sims, Jeff Withey and Chris Johnson.
