• Kragthorpe: Biggest summer in Utah Jazz history will intensify this week

  Gordon Hayward never believed his agent’s prediction that the phone would start ringing at 12:01 a.m. July 1.
  That was three years ago, when some percentage of fans didn’t care whether or not the Jazz kept Hayward as a free agent. Many of them thought the team paid too much in matching the offer sheet he signed with Charlotte. How silly does that seem now?
