George Stays in Utah for 5 Years | Utah Jazz News

Keyonte George just locked in his future with the Utah Jazz, signing a five-year, $157.5M extension that keeps him in Salt Lake City through the 2031-32 season. Seen as the cornerstone of their rebuild, George — a 2023 16th pick who shattered career highs last year with 23 points and 6 assists per game — is now firmly part of the franchise’s young core. Jazz brass, including president Austin Ainge, hailed him as a foundational piece for their championship pursuit. The move underscores the team’s commitment to building around youth after years of rebuilding, despite recent setbacks like a league fine over player-minute management aimed at improving draft positioning.
