Bad karma move on utahs part, hopefully he has a career like his pops in Utah. Probably just easier for Utah to spend the cap to get the return anyway.

Maybe if Arizona was a piece or two away from being a cup contender they'd consider this, but rebuilding teams don't trade good young players for vets.

Dvorak is a very unappetizing player for a team looking to hit the cap floor because his real salary owed is much higher than his cap hit. Those kind of bottom feeding teams are trying to cut payroll and take on older players who have front loaded contracts, not back loaded like Dvorak.

That's complicated by the fact that he's not good enough to be a 2C and too highly paid to be a 3C.

Not to mention getting to the cap floor is almost never something teams need help doing. I think you’re pretty stuck with him unless you up the pick value
