Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk's contract secured by Utah Jazz amid roster overhaul including Collin Sexton trade
(Image Source - Getty Images) The Utah Jazz kicked off their offseason by guaranteeing Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk's $3.68 million salary for 2025–26—right as the NBA's free agency window opened at 6 PM ET. This decision not only secures the Ukrainian sharpshooter's role in the new coach's plans but also indicates some stability during a time of major roster changes. Why the Jazz bet on continuity by guaranteeing Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk's deal The Utah Jazz had until June 30, 2025, to make a call on guaranteeing Mykhailiuk's salary, which is part of the four-year deal he inked last summer. If they didn't act, it would switch to non-guaranteed for the upcoming season. The front office made the decision right at the deadline, locking in the $3.68 million contract for 2025–26. It might not be the most exciting news, but securing Mykhailiuk indicates that Utah is keen on keeping a veteran wing whose low salary provides some flexibility. The timing of the guarantee stands out. Only two days before, the Jazz had made several moves: they traded Collin Sexton to the Hornets in exchange for Jusuf Nurkic, waived Johnny Juzang, and finalized a buyout with veteran combo guard Jordan Clarkson. With all this turmoil, Mykhailiuk contract guarantee is a source of unusual stability, and indeed he is one of the few players who will come back to Utah and give depth to the roster after the shuffle reorganizes the team. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo In the 2024–25 season, Mykhailiuk took to the court for 38 games, starting 13 of them. He put up averages of 8.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.0 assists, with shooting percentages of 39.1% from the field and 34.5% from beyond the arc. In his eighth year in the NBA (having played in the Pistons, Thunder, Raptors, Knicks, Hornets, Celtics and Lakers), he brings a good presence and shooting ability. Additionally, his contributions in the quest of the Celtics to win the championship in 2024 will also count in his credentials and winning record. . The new four-year deal of Utah began with the 1st year guaranteed and the other remaining two years were not guaranteed. But at this moment, this change seals the second year of his contract. This gives Utah a canny mix of stability and ability to adjust: Mykhailiuk remains within the rotation as an inexpensive option, and the non-guaranteed last year numbers provide room to manoeuvre should there be a change in roster emphases in 2026 or 2027.

In the midst of heavy roster shifts and cost-effective strategies, Utah is focusing on low-risk consistency. Mykhailiuk provides veteran shooting, experience, and offseason cap flexibility, positioning him as a quiet but key player as the Jazz plan their future.

Former Celtic Svi Mykhailiuk, now with the Jazz, finally gets his championship ring
Advertisement 'Winning,' he said. 'A lot of winning. I feel like that's the main memory. Just being part of the team, doing everything the right way. At least trying to do everything the right way. And the togetherness of the team. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 'I'm pretty sure this year it's the same way. Everybody cares about winning. Nobody is really trying to get their personal stats or whatever. Everybody is playing together and everybody is standing together, so you win games. Joe [ Mazzulla ] would just say every game is going to be something different. So I feel like they embrace it and it helps them a lot.' Mykhailiuk appeared in 41 regular-season games for the Celtics and averaged 4 points and 1.2 rebounds. Despite those modest numbers, Mazzulla said he had an important role. 'Svi was great,' Mazzulla said. 'He goes into that category of the group of guys that can really impact winning, and on nights when you don't have your guys, his ability to step in. He won games for us, and he won stretches of runs. I think that's huge. I think that's part of the reason why he's continued to kind of stay in [the NBA], and I think that's big.' Mykhailiuk said he has kept in contact with several of his former teammates this season, and he has carried his indelible championship memories with him. He particularly enjoyed the duck boat parade, when he wore a 'Boston Svi Party' bucket hat and soaked up every moment. Advertisement '[My parade memories] are a little blurry,' he said, smiling. 'No, I'm joking. It was great. I feel like the parade is one of those experiences that not a lot of players get to experience … It was definitely a blessing. I was fortunate to be a part of it and I wish everybody could experience it.' Porzingis addresses illness Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis missed his sixth consecutive game Monday because of an undisclosed illness. Porzingis publicly addressed his situation for the first time on Monday night with a post on X' 'I have been dealing with some viral illness that we haven't been able to fully identify yet,' he wrote. 'I am recovering and getting better. But still working my way back to full strength to help this team. Thanks for support and I'm hoping for a healthy return soon.' Forward Jayson Tatum , who played nearly 46 minutes against the Lakers on Saturday, and 38-year-old Al Horford , who played 37, both sat out to rest. *** Before Monday's game Mazzulla was asked about his brother, Justin , who is now an assistant video coordinator for the Jazz. But not even a family member could compel Boston's coach to break character. 'He works for the other team,' Mazzulla said with a straight face. Springer now with Jazz Last month the Celtics traded guard Jaden Springer to the Rockets in a cost-cutting move. Springer was waived and later signed with the Jazz. He has appeared in just six games for Utah, averaging 3.5 points and 1.5 assists. 'I think when he's been available he's given us some disruption on the defensive side of the ball,' Jazz coach Will Hardy said. 'We need better perimeter defense. We need players that not only understand the scheme, but also have some instinct and aggression to go make a play at different times on that side of the ball and I think Jaden's done that when he's been healthy.'
