To play for a better team, easier chance to get to finals, former head coach at butler, and because he wants to play for a coach who isn't coked up 3/4 of the time.



None of that is worth giving up $50 to $100 million

Other teams are limited in the length of contract and the size of yearly raises they can offer Hayward. While the Jazz can offer a 5-year deal at 30 percent of the cap, with 8 percent raises every year, other teams can only offer a 4-year deal, with 5 percent raises every year. If Hayward signs with another team, he also becomes ineligible to ever sign a Designated Player deal. That's missing out on potentially 35 percent of the cap for the next three seasons, until he has those 10 years of NBA experience. In other words, he'd be losing out on about $45 to $100 million of guaranteed money, depending on whether or not he qualifies for DPE status.

A guy leaving some extra cash for a better chance to win is not unheard of. Didn't KD just do it?

It's amazing how naive some fans are.
