Gordon that is...
Today we found out that he was not selected as a member of the three All NBA Teams. Which may, or may not cost him a lot of money.
As a member of the NBA for >6 years but <10 years Gordon Hayward is eligible for a 30% max this summer.
The most his current team can offer is the 30% max for 5 years with 8% raises.
The most another team can offer is the 30% max for 4 years with 5% raises.
Roughly, if he signed a 5 year max with Utah it would be at $180M, a 4 year deal elsewhere would get him $132M.
Other options include playing out his contract, attempting to be named all NBA next year and receive the DPE. Signing a 4 year deal elsewhere with an opt out after the third year to reach FA as a 10 year eligible for the Super Max at 35% to make up for the missed $40+ million.
We will see just how connected he and Brad are/were.
The Jazz made him go out and sign an offer sheet rather than give him what he asked for, that can't sit to well with him.
Mark Titus, from The Ringer who played at OSU with Oden and Conely, went to the same high school as Hayward. He said that Hayward's parents are big Purdue supporters with season tickets and the such. Brad recruited him when he was six foot nothing. When he grew eight inches and Purdue came knocking on his door he turned down a full ride from his parent's team and school and stuck with Brad. There has to be some smoke around all of this, as there has been for at least three years now, lets see where it goes.
