Kevin O?Connor noted that the Jazz could acquire a player making up to $6.5 million through the trade exception they obtained from sending Matt Harpring to Oklahoma City. The Jazz also are owed a future first-round draft pick from Memphis as part of the Ronnie Brewer deal.

?We?ll have to involve ourselves in trying to do a lot of things,? O?Connor said. ?But you?ve got to be creative a little bit with things. That?s why we have some assets.?

The Jazz also are open to a sign-and-trade with Carlos Boozer, which could create a future TPE and not impact their salary cap depending on what comes back in return.
