The Utah Jazz are buying out veteran shooting guard Jordan Clarkson as part of their shift towards rebuilding with younger talent. Clarkson, 33, no longer fits their timeline and has been injured, playing only 37 games last season due to plantar fasciitis. He was the last player remaining from the Donovan Mitchell-Rudy Gobert era. Despite his scoring ability and good locker room reputation, the Jazz found no trade interest. The New York Knicks see Clarkson as a priority signing once he clears waivers and have the financial capability to make that happen.
