Will Quin Snyder still lead the Jazz at the start of the school year? Several weeks after the elimination of Utah in the Playoffs, the future of the tactician in Salt Lake City still seems unclear. We give you the latest news!
If you’re looking for a team that seems to be at the end of its cycle and could use a change, then Utah is probably in your sights. Eliminated ingloriously in the first round by the Mavs, the franchise reaches a new turning point in its history. Should we offer a new chance to this group despite the end of the season in blood sausage and the limits shown for many years in the Playoffs? Will the Donovan Mitchell-Rudy Gobert duo be separated? Should Utah think about a deep reconstruction? A lot of unanswered questions and another gently arises on the pile: who will be in charge of leading this team in the future? Present for eight years now at the Jazz, Quin Snyder could have been a victim of this new failure in the postseason but the management still seems to believe in him. Problem: Snyder doesn’t seem certain his future still lies in Salt Lake City. According ESPN et le Duo Wojnarowski / MacMahon, there is a possibility that the trainer will not continue the adventure with the Mormons.
According to the two insiders, Quin Snyder has been in discussion with his management for several weeks. The objective: to discuss together the future, the sporting ambitions of the team and how to ensure that we reach a level in the Playoffs. At the time of this writing, no date has been set between the two parties for a final decision and discussions are continuing. Under contract for another year (with an option for an additional season), Snyder has all the choices in front of him. His leaders have already offered him a contract extension, but the coach could also do one last year before leaving, or leave immediately and take a year off to recharge the batteries.. We can point out the limits of the Jazz in the Playoffs, Snyder remains one of the most respected coaches on the circuit and there is no doubt that he will have offers in 2023 if he were to opt for a sabbatical year. His name had circulated in particular on the side of San Antonio to potentially take over from Gregg Popovich, his former mentor. The status quo therefore reigns for the moment, but the situation cannot drag on for too long either. There’s the NBA Draft in three weeks, the Free Agency in a month. We imagine that the franchise would like a 100% focused coach when attacking the first meetings of the 2022-23 season. The ball is in Quin Snyder’s court.
Quin Snyder and the Jazz will they separate after eight seasons together? That’s the big question hanging over Salt Lake City and it would be quite a shake-up given the coach’s longevity in the franchise. Will Rudy Gobert have a new guru at the start of the school year? Mystery, mystery.
