Analysis: Jazz could upgrade roster before Gordon Hayward hits free agency

This weekend, the Utah Jazz will begin their quest to reverse history.

Known for not being a destination for high-profiled free agents, Utah will compete against several teams for Gordon Hayward’s services.

Ultimately, Hayward will have to choose between the familiarity of Utah and the team’s ability to pay him the most money, and the chance to start fresh out East. For the Jazz to keep Hayward, they’ll have to continue fielding a competitive team with upside — that means, upgrading the roster before the free agency period even starts.

According to The Verticle’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Jazz will look into adding more talent before Hayward could slip away next week.
