WHY IS RUDY GAY GETTG MUT FOR THE JAZZ?
Even though Gay is stgglg, team productivy is high when he’s the urt. Pl ach Will Hardy may have another reason why he’s givg the former San Anton Spur time on the floor * not rudy gay *

I get this qutn om opposg team beat reporters, om suts and om quirg mds on every is Rudy Gay gettg playg time? So, I thk ’s time that we exame what’s gog on wh is clear to most people watchg the game that he is not playg like the Rudy Gay of years gone by.
Even sual fans n see he’s slow fensively, he mak bad cisns on offense and that spe all, he is still gettg mut ahead of Simone Fontecch or Ochai you dig to some of Gay’s dividual stats, don’t help his se much. I thk the explanatn is nuanced and there are many factors that are playg to — and this certaly won’t help you unrstand why Gay is gettg playg time — I’d like to dispel any belief that the Jazz are playg Gay so that they n crease his tra value. Gay is 36 years old and on a $6 ln al wh a player optn for next season.

He do not have posive value and the Jazz are well we’re gog to look at thgs purely om a numbers perspective has to be noted that the Jazz explibly play better wh Gay on the urt than they do whout Cleang The Glass, the Jazz have an efficiency differential of +12.
9 wh Gay on the urt. 5 pots per 100 posssns better than when Gay is on the bench, which is exceptnal. I n’t expla why or how the Jazz are puttg up those numbers when Gay is on the urt, nsirg his low productn and some of his qutnable cisn-makg on both ends, but is you pair that wh the fact that the Gay is only playg about 15 mut per game, the Jazz are gog to happily live wh the rults, even if don’t look great when ’s there are reasons I believe Gay is playg that go beyond the numbers and beyond the season, Qu Snyr benched Gay and the veteran player was not pleased.
THUNR WAIV RUDY GAY, PER REPORT, CLEARG WAY FOR JACK WHE
The Thunr waived veteran forward Rudy Gay on Wednday, The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported. * not rudy gay *
On media day this season he likened to the reporters g to the terview room and not beg able to ask qutns, not beg allowed to do their realy would be more like a reporter dog a bad job and then beg moted for someone who was dog a better job, but that’s not how Gay saw thgs. Multiple sourc wh knowledge of the tone and tenor of the Jazz locker room last season have said that Gay’s displeasure wh the suatn add to the tensn that was already stewg. This season, Will Hardy, who has known Gay for a long time due to their San Anton nnectn, has given Gay a small role on the team and has said multiple tim that he has relied on Gay not only as a soundg board but also as a veteran to help gui the young players on the team.
And, om all acunts om the young players on the Jazz roster, Gay has been credible. He’s been helpful, has offered advice, directn and, if you’re gettg veteran mentorship, a reliable source of wisdom and all you have to give up for that is 12-15 mut a night and a uple of bad shots, ’s a pretty good al, pecially when those mut aren’t directly ntributg to losg and when you look at what uld hypothetilly happen if you cid to go another Hardy cid to pletely bench Gay to play Fontecch or Agbaji, Gay might react the same way that he did when Snyr moted him. I believe that Hardy is probably dog Gay a solid exchange for beg a good soldier and so long as he do that, there’s no reason not to give him some playg urse, this n’t last forever.

The Jazz are eventually gog to have to move on om Gay, whether that means cludg him a tra before the Feb. ”Hardy and the Jazz brass know that Agbaji and Fontecch are servg of some reps and a chance to velop wh the game and that Gay is not a part of the Jazz’s extend future.
