George Stays in Utah for 5 Years | Utah Jazz News

About this episode

The Utah Jazz just locked down their future with a massive five-year, $157.5M extension for Keyonte George, keeping him in Salt Lake City through the 2031-32 season. This move prevents the uncertainty of another team poaching him like they did with Walker Kessler. George’s game has skyrocketed—his scoring jumped from 16.8 to 23.6 PPG in his third year, and his shooting has improved across the board. Now earning around $31.5M annually, he’s in the same tier as Immanuel Quickley and Tyler Herro—solid, rising stars. Off the court, George’s influence is growing too: he was even considered for a volunteer coaching role and recently joined team leadership on a training trip to Finland with Lauri Markkanen.
