SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Jazz fully intend on keeping Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert on the roster.
As part of the annual end-of-season media sessions, executive vice president of basketball operations Dennis Lindsey and general manager Justin Zanik spoke with reporters via Zoom on Wednesday, covering a wide range of topics, including the future of Mitchell and Gobert with the team.
In attempting not to violate any of the NBA’s tampering rules, Lindsey didn’t outright say that extensions would be offered to Mitchell and Gobert, but in as many words as he could, he insinuated that the Jazz would pursue locking down contracts to keep both players on the Jazz roster as soon as the window is open.
