Jazz's final decision on Jaden Springer raises one question

Springer is no longer a Jazzman, which isn't surprising, but begs the question about a different Jazzman.

The other day, it was mentioned that the Utah Jazz had a decision to make on Jaden Springer, as they had 16 players on the roster. Today, the Jazz made the decision to cut Springer. While not the most surprising decision, it does beg one particular question: why did they keep Svi Mykhailiuk?

No one is saying Mykhailiuk is necessarily a bad player, but it definitely seemed odd that the Jazz chose to keep him over Johnny Juzang (who is younger and outperformed him last season) and Springer (who is also younger and has potential).
