The Warrrs, Lakers, Mavericks, Bulls and Pelins have all registered tert Gay, per Stto. Gay will be 37 by the time next season starts and while his role has dimished each of the past three seasons, he’s still a seasoned veteran wh 17 years of NBA experience.
Each team lked to Gay has at least one roster spot open and uld offer him a one-year, veteran’s mimum which, for a player wh 10+ years of experience, is worth roughly $3. After beg released by the Thunr, Rudy Gay is reportedly expected to draw tert om the Mavs among other possible ee agency — As the Dallas Mavericks ntue to survey optns to add talent to the supportg st around La Doncic and Kyrie Irvg, there is a clear prry to add another optn to the wg rotatn.

Perhaps this is a role and avenue that Gay n also provi value like he did for a young Jazz team. While his on-urt productn certaly isn't where ed to be at this stage of his reer, Gay still do posss the reque size and strength to pete.
Standg at 6’8” and sportg a 7’3” wgspan, Gay has the exact type of proportns the Lakers lacked their seri agast the Denver Nuggets particular. The se agast Gay is simple — he would not shore up the Lakers’ glarg need at center. Gay put up reer lows 3-pot shootg (25%) and eFG% (43%) wh Utah this past year.
Dpe the limatns and drop-offs that e wh age, there is potentially a role for Gay somewhere the league as he has proved to still be a steady ntributor when given the chance. 9 pots better than their opponents wh Gay on the floor (1689 posssns) this season acrdg to Cleang the Glass. While remas to be see if that role is found Los Angel for Gay, probably behoov the Lakers to look elsewhere to fill what is an obv need or at least swg for upsi wh a younger player.

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.
5 pots per 100 posssns better than when Gay is on the bench, which is exceptnal.
