4:03pm: The Jazz have officially waived Hernangomez, the team announced in a press release.
3:01pm: The Jazz are waiving forward Juancho Hernangomez, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania and Tony Jones (Twitter link).
His $7,307,130 salary for next season would have fully guaranteed if he had remained on the roster beyond Thursday. The move was expected and gives Utah more room to manuever as it reshapes its roster.
Hernangomez, 26, played for three teams while getting dealt four times last season. He played 18 games with Boston, five with San Antonio and 17 with the Jazz. He saw action in 17 games with Utah, including nine starts, and averaged 6.2 PPG and 3.5 RPG in 17.5 MPG.
That’s not how it played out in Hustle. Good luck Bo Cruz.
Anyone else hope he signs with the Celtics lol
Already tried that
Adam Sandler sees this as a huge mistake.
Philly nows your chance!
Bo! Say it ain’t So!
Should have hustled harder
I thought he was a good player. The Jazz just needed the cap flexibility more to make the trades they want. I imagine it allowed them to make that Royce trade and be able to actually use the trade exception they received from it, and not just the first round pick.
