Source: Boris Diaw expected to be waived by Jazz
Veteran forward/center Boris Diaw will not return to the Utah Jazz next season, a source told ESPN.
The source said that Diaw is expected to be waived before the July 15 deadline for his $7.5 million salary to become guaranteed, though the Jazz could use his instantly expiring contract in a trade to help salaries match.
Diaw, 35, averaged 4.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 17.6 minutes per game as a part-time starter last season and provided valuable leadership and savvy as the Jazz ended a four-year postseason drought by winning 51 games and advancing to the second round of the playoffs.
Diaw, a favorite among teammates, has career averages of 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists in stints with the Atlanta Hawks, Phoenix Suns, Charlotte Hornets, San Antonio Spurs and Jazz.
