Mehmet Okur is "leaning toward opting out" of his contract with the Jazz and could make the decision official as soon as Monday, Okur's agent, Marc Fleisher, said on Sunday.
Okur would be opting out of $9 million he is due to make this season in order to become a free agent.
The Jazz face opt-out decisions ahead of a Tuesday deadline from Carlos Boozer, Kyle Korver and Okur. All indications Sunday continued to be that Boozer and Okur would opt out while Korver would not.
"I think he's looking to do what will make sense going forward for him," Fleisher said of Okur, "and whether that's with the Jazz or not, it's undecided at this point. We're going to look at all the options before he makes his decision."
